"Little black WOMAN" ???? 😠😤
I love how the mother decided to use this incident to empower her child. She is NOT a victim. Damn right, Mama!
He knew good and well that was a child. He knew it would be embarrassing to say that to the police, so he came with "little black woman". What a sad, miserable person he must be...
The neighbor is a coward. There. I said it!
The neighbor is a punk a** b****! He should be man enough to speak with her mother. He said the child looked like a small woman. White people, you do not get a pass for making false statements. This situation could have turned out differently. Her mom said she's not a victim. She is a champion. Congratulations, Bobbie! Parents, raise champions
I love how now Bobbi gets to show her full potential thanks to the neighbor Thank you devil you tried
@Vannessa Johnson.. Amen, I know that's rite!!
Sit down devil
Someone should write a children’s book about her story. It could inspire other children.
They should about THESE stories, it has happened countless times to black children
That’s a great idea😉
What are you waiting for?😊 Get to it!!! ☝
@@LetMeTeach4U you are right! I do love reading and writing!
Your great idea, don't give it away...be "Kelly Wonder"!
As soon as her big sister started talking, I started crying. The mom tried to hold her tears but that year was sitting on her cheeks. What someone meant for bad, God made it to the good. This child is going to bless this world with her talent... Way to go Bobbi!!!
Yes, she will.🩷 This made me emotional, too. She comes from a beautiful family, and you can tell she is smart and kind.
“A suspicious person”…. What a jerk…..SAD
Amen!
YES! The future is bright for you Bobbie WONDER! 🏆 🥇
When the neighbour made that call to the police department he hoped and expected drama That's why he put together all the trigger words black, suspicious & woman he wanted the thug squad to come charging onto his street guns poised. I bet he was indoors watching behind curtains. Thank goodness what they got was a nice community officer who saw he was facing a child.
The neighbours intention was malicious or he would have spoken to the child's mother as he is fully aware of the family. He is a nasty piece of work and feel he can just say sorry and move on. No, he needs to be watched
The moral of this story is, just because they tolerate you in the neighbourhood doesn't mean they like you
The adultification of our little girls is a severe problem!!
I agree especially when black adults were called boy and girl for years as a way to belittle them.
Or just "child" race aside it happens but as kid don't think of that way but you do feel it
Say it louder for the people in the back !!! 🗣🗣
@@EstelleCreativeDesigns yep...boy and gal (usually not girl)...during the jim crow era the african american Pullman porters
were all called "George" and even today this type of racist trope is used in the mexican american community by calling mexican men "Jose"
Amen!
That neighbor is nothing but a COWARD.....threw that rock but wanted to hide his hand. I'm not surprised that he did not have the backbone to sit face to face and look eyes to eyes with this loving mother.
COWARD INDEED
Monsters always hide in the dark,can’t face the light
These people need to be held accountable for their bogus police complaints.
This officer had to answer that call. It was a waste of his time.
True, but maybe he will see this episode and change his heart. That is what we need, heart-changing.
He’s definitely a stone coward and monster, still hiding since the 18th Century. “ BUT GOD TURNED IT AROUND
Everyone: this is the master class in parenting ! god bless this mother...
Absolutely 💯
God bless her, next time you write God - big G please, thank you
The fact that the "neighbor" didn't want to mediate with Ms. Joseph speaks volumes of this guys "real" intentions & validates that his "apology" was disingenuous. Thank GOD the responding police officer was on top of his game!
Such grace, poise and strength. What a beautiful family!
yes indeed
Well look at that! I’m so thankful the cop wasn’t one of those overzealous cops. I’m also grateful to hear of all of the amazing opportunities / recognition coming Bobbie Wonder’s way! Congratulations Bobbie! It’s also wonderful to see the family’s desire to focus on the GOOD in this situation.
Yes yes yes! I applaud her tremendously for the way she is turning this into a story about triumph! Yes there was an offense, but we are using that to catapult us into greatness faster than we expected. Congratulations to this amazing family. 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Yes the cop was a example of how all cops should be. That was a very important part. So thankful for how he handled this. This little girl will never forget and everyone knows what the caller intentions was.
I’m deafened. This is an example of how important deaf assistance is to people who can’t hear to understand. I have no idea what this story is about. Tamaron pulls in enough money to get captioned accommodations. What did the little girl do and why???
@@lindashelby2246Hopefully, Bobbi will grow beyond her mother's attitude that "As a BLACK woman, you really don't want to have confrontation with the police". That statement has multiple interpretations and connotations, and none of them are good.
The neighbor is so evil to do this to a 9 little girl. Thank you Yale for recognizing this little hero.
She is such a cutie pie. Anyone could clearly see she’s a child.
The officer seemed to be respectful.
Who could ever mistake that child for an adult?!? Smh This really brought tears to my eyes.
An American racist person
It wasn't a mistake
It was a mistake it was purpose, so they can come in blazing on the ready with gun outs... I hate to think if her mom wasn't out walking behind her... sure police would have had a whole or neither attitude. The neighbor knew them they had been living there for years.
A racist or a pervert. That's who.
My godsister and I are 7 days apart but because she's 4"11 and I'm 5'6, she was once mistaken for my daugher. And no, I don't look old. She just looks like a kid and back in the day, used to dress like one with teddy bears on her clothes (to remind her of her son who died). So yes, it happens.
This is the child you see growing up to work on RNA vaccines. She is also the child who excels in her integrated science courses and places into the National Honors Society. I hope she grows up happy and protected because I can’t wait to see what she does.
The police,come out for some stupid man calling about a child spraying water on GRASS!!!! You must be joking!!! This is unbelievable!!!! 😱😱😱
They came out because he said black woman. The caller knew what he was doing. Just like the white woman who called the police in the park on the black man who told her her dog needed to be on a leash. She called in a fake panic tone and said her life was in danger. There was video on that one. Danger black suspicious. All trigger words for Police to be ready to harm/kill. Prophecy being fulfilled.
Yes because the key and code word was "black"🧐😤
He could have asked her what she was spraying instead of calling the cops.
@@unapoligeticllyisrael2066 in most countries u would be in trouble for calling the police,and wasting they're time a silly matters.
They’ll come out for any call fr a white person even if he/she call to report a Black baby drinking water. How do you guys live happy in the US? Wow.
The coward needs to be EXPOSED. Stand up for what you have done. The coward knows he was WRONG. He didn’t think the outcome would be in her FAVOR.
Exactly
Ok Tamron thank you for adding a little more to the story. Because news outlets made it seem like she got the recipe from tiktok not that she improved upon it and I didn't know the mom actually reached out to the neighbour to have a conversation and only when he refused did she then go to the media with it.
I love your take on this. This beautiful mother shifted the power in their favor. She tried to give her neighbor opportunities to be part of the solution to his error but he preferred to quietly 🤫 back out of it. So she did like her daughter (expanded the recipe to make it work for her), she expanded the headlines to make this work for her daughter and her family. I see where her daughter gets her drive and intelligence from. Everyone in this family are winners!🏆
@@yvonneratcliff47 Correct.
He is the male version of a White Karen
What the enemy plans for evil God turns it around! Thank God for this beauty and the whole family God please cover your daughters and give mom the strength as she protects her girls.
God will turn it around, around, around.

Thanks for saying that dear
Amen!
I look forward to the day when our skin is not viewed as a weapon! Thank goodness the police officer had some sense and could see this was blown out of proportion, he served and protected and I wanna say to him job well done!!!! #beautifulblackwomen
well said as we know so well many police officers are racist and use no common sense we must continue to pray to our Black children safe from hurt, harm and danger
sadly,in my opinion it won't happen anytime soon. we 1st need to show respect among our race to other race & then will other feel the need to respect darker skin people.
I agree. We are not threats at all.
@kay. Seems to be a huge problem in the USA. Other countries with diversity aren’t walking the same path. I’m not saying there isn’t racism in other places. But the USA seems to proportionately have more of it going on.
We're not a threat they use that so they can s*** on us
The officer conducted himself in a very honorable and professional manner. The mother showed no malice - even commending the local police department 😊
The police officer, introduced himself, in such a professional manner. He told her, and, her, mother, that he, had his, bodycam on. Thanks to him, and, thing's working together for the good concerning this matter!
Yes he did! I'm grateful for this officer.
This is a perfect example that people will do things for bad but GOD will take it and turn it into something good.
Thank God mom wasn’t too far behind❤ People do not see children of color as children❤
Your comment made me cry because you are so right.
There is no way he took her for a small woman...she so adorable and has a sweet spirit. I'm so glad the police did their job and did not escalate the situation. When God is in the mix no harm can come💖
Bobbi Wonder is Black STEM girl. I'm looking forward to seeing Bobbi do BIG things in the future. Love you and God bless you and your family.
AS the child of a STEM Mechanical Engineering Alumnus of NCA&T State University plus a vet also, this is the type of thing that he fought for along with my mom for me and my brothers and others in our small rural community.
@@lilliansteele7165 - God bless your dad and family. Black kids' invested interest in STEM is imperative for success in a racist society.
Keep flying high and higher .. don't allow HATERS to dull your shine
These young women are extraordinary!! I can’t wait to see their future. Mom and the girls are something special🙏🏽
Prejudice has no place in our society. Yet, here we are again and again. I'm so proud of this little girl and her family. Rise above the bigotry, Rise above the hatred for your skin, Rise above and stand tall on the foundations that your mother taught you.
Precisely 💯
Its not the hatred of the skin color, it's the hatred of bloodline.
This story is so beautiful it literally made me cry. I love the way she looked up at her big sister when she began to talk. the entire family is highly intelligent and lovable and positive people I am so thankful and glad that they were given all of the opportunities that they are given. Thanks Yale!!!
Mom is raising such beautiful daughters and she is just as beautiful. God bless this family, these girls will go far in life and will be true Leaders. Blessed ❤❤❤❤
What a beautiful and brave black mother!
I’m very proud of this family; the mother represent black mothers well, low key very intelligent; smart beautiful daughters 🙏❤️
Whoa not all ABW some are narcissistic
The caller and their mess didn't realize they were part of a "Spiritual Setup" to place this amazing young princess exactly where she was supposed to be💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Yes! Reminds me of Haman and Mordecai.
She's such a beautiful butterfly spreading her wings ❤️ Love the family support 👍
Congratulations for highlighting this story. Look how tiny she is!!! How can you confuse her as an adult, and she is Your Neighbor!!!!
Bobbie wonder! 👍🏾
I wish they could/would release his name. Beautiful mom and daughters. Inside and out!
This video brought tears to my eyes. This beautiful adorable little girl deserves the world. Mom your doing it honey!! Both your daughters are just soo beautiful and you can tell are raised right and soo smart and have a big heart!! I see my little girls in them .
Don't let hateful evil people destroy that light within you and them. That evil hateful neighbor of yours will get what's coming. Trust and believe in karma. They should sue him for this and also the police should fine him for wasting their time with such nonsense.
Powerful Strong Mom + Intelligent Daughters = Beautiful Family ❤
They thought they were going to get a race bashing show but the mother keeps redirecting her. This lady has style
I hope that ‘neighbor’ is watching now
Beautiful family.
Congrats Bobbie Wilson, mama ( raising fine young daughters) and great officer!
What beautiful comments for a beautiful family. Tamron Hall you rock!!!
"Bobbie Wonder" and Big Sister Hayden are destined for greatness. Outstanding job "Queen Mother:".🙏🏽🥳
This is quite a story. This sweet, smart, beautiful, little girl has an even smarter, stronger mother. However, I am not so strong. Tears are just running down my face!
Okkkk Bobbi Wonder!! I look forward to reading your future publications!
Way to go Tamron show.👍 We needed this story to be told.
To this amazing mom, I say there is no need to reach out to the neighbor anymore. Allow him to watch how his actions actually improved your entire family's future. Showing him is more impactful than telling him anyway. Using the police has been the way people have destroyed lives in the past. But, we are going beyond that now, in part thanks to body camera footage, and retraining. You no longer need him for the future narrative, he already fulfilled his assignment. The future is bright 🌞 ✨️ 😎, do not allow his shade to cloud your story anymore.
I'm just so happy that things turned out for the positive for this little scientist. She is a beautiful little girl and reminds me of my grand daughter. Such A beautiful family.
Momma bear - Great job on how you handled the situation ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ to you and being a great example in your community despite the negative neighbor who now shamefully & cowardly doesn't want to meet face to face.
Hayden - big sis ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ to you for going to the Town Hall and speaking out on behalf of your sister & making it know the degree of the situation and demanding change!
Bobbi Wonder ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for being brave & smart!!! Congratulations today & your tomorrow on being a Future Scientist 🥼🥼🥼
It’s the delusional neighbor that really irks me. She’s a little girl and the neighbor should have referred to her as such. Woman and girl do not mean the same thing. It’s ppl like that neighbor whom are a part of the problem. Thank God the police didn’t treat her like a woman and gathered information about the situation first!!!
I hope both girls apply to Yale when they graduate. That would be sooooo cool.
Beautiful family. These young ladies have a spectacular mother and the apples don't fall far from the tree.
Thank you, Tamron, for turning this "ugly" situation around.❤️🙏🏽
Thank You Jesus for turning this evil situation around for Good!
I thank God for you Bobbi for being the inquisitive little girl you are. And mom thank you for being the mom you are...standing behind your child and allowing her to be all God created her to be.
Kids will be what the parents want them to be, whether it is good or evil; it starts at home. God bless you and your family, and may His blessings continue to dwell within your hosehold. Keep up the good work!
If that was her neighbor he should have known she wasn't a little woman he should have known that she was a little girl what kind of neighbor was he
And, Thank You "Big Sister" for speaking up for your little sister as well❣️
He's looking at her as a woman. Why? What does he see when he looks at her?
Evil. Imagine the trauma for the child and her family. Who called the police??
It's only traumatic if you're taught to fear the police.
@@yirmiyahu1397 OK then. I’ll call the police on your 7-year-old nephew and claim he looks “23” and “suspicious”. How bout that?
I expected someone named ‘Yirmiyahu’, whose relatives caught hell in Europe 80 years ago, to have better sense.
Well the cop did not approach her in a scary reprehensible way. He was super cool n nice to them and obviously new this was insane but had to show up as his duty obviously. But I'm sure the mom knows what's behind it but the baby girl shouldn't.
@S. Malone Well Said..And True.How soon do they Forget
@@yirmiyahu1397 It's not a taught fear, It's from experiences. It's a factual possibility that there is a reason to be afraid.
The police came out for this but you can NEVER get them to come when there is ACTUAL disturbance or someone being a menace?!!!!
I'm watching with a huge smile! I'm so proud of Mom for making sure the world doesn't see her baby in the wrong light. They're constantly trying to change the narrative on us😔
Thank you Tamron & Bobby Wonder & her beautiful mother for letting us celebrate our new and upcoming cutest scientist in the world!! Love it ❤🎉
BLACK WOMEN/GIRLS ARE AMAAAAZING!!!
When they neighbor) go low the Mom and family truly went Higher
It is so admirable of this mother to have the mindset to have a conversation with the neighbor first. It's no wonder Bobby, it is so smart(no pun intended ). You guys are awesome ❤️
From one Bobbie to another Bobbi You are Smart Beautiful and Wonderful!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏾💕💕👑👑
Congratulations young lady!!!!!! God is with you.
❤ I'm learning that oftentimes our victories will come through rejection and misunderstanding. If we continue on--Victory is inevitable!🙏🏽
True. 👍 I say there is no need to reach out to the neighbor anymore. Allow him to watch how his actions actually improved your entire family's future. Showing him is more impactful than telling him anyway. This has been the way people have destroyed our lives in the past. But, we are beyond that now, in part thanks to body camera footage.
Mom was outstanding. Kudos also to big sister. Carry on sweetheart ❤
I cry watching this. Evil grownups. That’s a little girl! How the heck are you gonna call the cops on that little girl. I hope there’s a special place in hell for people like that dude that call the cops.
AGREED!
Then he's to cowardly to stand behind his actions. When it didn't turn out the way he hoped now he's embarrassed.
Now that’s an amazing family, an amazing little girl an amazing mother!! More important the mom’s perspective of this whole situation!! Her optimism and recognition of the responding officer along with positive approach to the department in general was big on her part. Both her and the officer interacted the way citizen/police should! Personally - a prime example as to the way policing can go in this country!!! Dignity and respect all the way around!!!
I'm so proud of her and her beautiful loving family. May God shield them and bless them richly. 🙌💛🙌
To God be the glory! Continued blessings & favor to her & her family 🙏🏾
The neighbor new she was a little girl. He used the word women, because he didn’t want to seem like an a**hole calling the cops on a little girl. Welp he still came off as a complete a_____e!!
Right!!
I bet you meant knew
What a wonderful mother ❤ what a beautiful family. Such class, intelligence, and elegance they have.
I bet that neighbor wished he’d had that conversation now.
Why are tears flowing from my eyes?? Kudos to Big sister. Lovely family.
It's sad cuz we are always judged by the color of our skin I am Soo glad her Mom turned THIS storyline around Bobby is Soo cute 🥰💯
She's so precious 🥲 The neighbor is a coward and won't even have a conversation with the mother. Typical .
Thats right she is a champion🏆🥇 Beautiful ❤ you go Scientist 🤎💪🏾
By the look on the mother's face, the person that called the police NEVER reached out to her.
And that man probably lied to the rep from Tamron's team about that apology too.
A great ending. Blessings to this family. Prayers 💕✌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
A little girl...WOW!!! Thank you, YALE! Thank you, Tamara! Thank you, Mom! That neighbor BLESSED BOBBI! ❤️
Bobbi Wonder is going down in HISTORY! Thank you neighbor!
What a beautiful loving family! ❤
Wishing Bobbie Wonder a fantastic LIFE ahead!
While walking black down the street. Black people cannot even breathe air. Without them saying anything.
What a great feel-good story to wake up to as an American in Austria. I don't get to hear much good about the USA lately, so this was special. Thanks!! Best wishes to you, Bobbi and your family!
I’m so grateful that cop that came to the scene of the call where the little girl was,I’m so glad he came in a calm manner versus coming in a aggressive manner that that evil caller probably wanted him to come 🙌🏾❤️🤔
That low down devil knew that baby wasn’t a lady!!! That child has a beautiful baby face ❤😍😘.
Just soo happy that this has turned into a beautiful victory 🎉
SUCH A CLASSY QUEEN
Her little face when they kept saying cockroaches 😩🤣🤣🤣 I love her aura 🥰
4:55 ironically the neighbor thought the same thing
This is very wonderful and an absolutely amazing young girl!! Yesssss Bobby Wonder!!!
Thank you Tamron, I enjoyed the story about little Bobbie Wonder and her family.. She is so gifted. I especially enjoyed how her mom sought to contact and discuss with the caller the matter and also her big sister who spoke up for her. Great story.
Sometimes your blessings come through foolishness. Her neighbor walked her into a blessing. YALE
SO PROUD OF Bobby Wonder! SO PROUD AND GRATEFUL TO THE POLICE OFFICIER HOW HE HANDLED THE SITUATION!! SHE IS SO SMART AND THE FAMILYBIS AWESOME!!
Go family! BOBBY WONDER AND HAYDEN. MOM KEEP GOING!!!!

THIS IS AN AWESOME PODCAST. THANK YOU TAMRON FOR BRINGING THIS NEGATIVE INCIDENT TO LIGHT. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL AND HIGHLY INTELLIGENT FAMILY .
These young ladies are beautiful!!
I'm so glad this turned out the way it did. Admittedly when I saw this headline I assumed the worst not know the news prior. I hope that little girl will become a chemist❤️❤️ and do great things❤️❤️
Little black woman…. Really…
These two young ladies are so precious, well spoken and so polite….The audacity of racists….. I pray for these babies and even for the racists…
❤❤❤
Black Women is rock
