Dr. Heavenly and I sit down and discuss the firing of Nick Cannon by Viacom for what some considered to be offensive and Anti-Semetic comments.
Excerpt from Vulture.com
Nick Cannon has been fired by ViacomCBS over anti-Semitic remarks Cannon made on his podcast, Cannon’s Class. In the episode, which was filmed last year but posted two weeks ago, Cannon was in conversation with rapper Professor Griff, who left Public Enemy in 1989 after making similar anti-Semitic comments in a Washington Post interview. Cannon asserted the truth of a number of conspiracy theories in the episode, referencing “the Rothschilds, centralized banking, the 13 families, the bloodlines that control everything even outside of America.” Cannon insisted that the conversation was not hateful, because “Semitic people are black people.” “You can’t be anti-Semitic when we are the Semitic people,” he said. He also voiced admiration for Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
In a statement on Facebook yesterday, Cannon addressed the episode, writing, “I do not condone hate speech nor the spread of hateful rhetoric,” but did not directly apologize for the podcast episode, instead saying, “I encourage more healthy dialogue and welcome any experts, clergy, or spokespersons to any of my platforms to hold me accountable and correct me in any statement that I’ve made that has been projected as negative.” Cannon elaborated on his thoughts in a statement to Fast Company, saying, “There’s no malice or negative intent, but in a time like 2020 we got to have these conversations.” Responding to criticism he faced for not apologizing in his Facebook statement, Cannon said, “To me apologies are empty. Are you forcing me to say the words ‘I’m sorry’? Are you making me bow down, ’cause then again, that would be perpetuating that same rhetoric that we’re trying to get away from.”
ViacomCBS responded to the controversy today in a statement announcing that they have “terminated” their relationship with Cannon. “While we support ongoing education and dialogue in the fight against bigotry, we are deeply troubled that Nick has failed to acknowledge or apologize for perpetuating anti-Semitism, and we are terminating our relationship with him,” the statement said. Cannon had a longstanding relationship with ViacomCBS, including hosting shows on Nickelodeon and MTV like Wild ‘N Out and Lip Sync Battle Shorties.

I believe that Viacom was looking for a reason to fire him ever since he's become so outspoken following George Floyd's death. They were waiting for him to slip up and make a mistake to boot him.
This young man is sharp, he does his homework on content, articulates extremely well, and divides truth.
I agree too I’ve been supporting him since day one! He is very unique and special individual!
Dont he tho💕💕
@@MsAngellove you and me both honey. I love his mind💕
Well stated. And reasons I've followed his work for 14 years now...since he started his channel in 2006. 💗
Yes, love him.
Dineva is well articulated. I love this man!! He speaks the raw truth!!
Jamaica history was good
Yeah they should do a podcast. They are both truth tellers.
@@mintlatte9934 facts!
Agreed
So true and intelligent 🤗🤗🤗
If Nick is reprimanded for this, every movie producer that made white Egyptian movies should be reprimanded and forced to apologize. They should also be fired from networks and lose money, endorsements etc...
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 & if I'm not mistaken, Egypt is an African country....so why are all the Egyptians Caucasian in every movie set in Egypt from B.C _AND_ A.D until now? 👀
Queen Of Kingz and they’ve never been forced to apologize or taken any losses because of it.
Yes
A lot of them did
Right, you have now set a precendent, so no excuses now.
Funky/Q, you’re hitting your stride with this new direction. Your blessing is coming. Something bigger in media/entertainment is coming.
I can listen to him speak all day
I hope Dineva lands an opportunity to have his own talk show or make appearances with huge networks because we need these conversations. I love how Dineva breaks the logic down. Since I’ve been watching Dineva, he’s influenced me to start seeing things from the other person perspective, which has really taught me to have grace with people. Hats on Dineva 👏🏾
this!
So true!
He said these people are not the Jews of biblical days. From a philosophical and historical standpoint, it’s a backable statement.
Thank You.
1poop o
I absolutely agree. This is the way I perceived it.
He also said he and people like him are the *real Jews” which philosophically and historically is demonstrably false. White Jewish (Ashkenazi) people (which he didn’t specify) just like African Jews (Ge’ez), Middle Eastern Jews (Sephardic), and South Asian Jews (forgot their name off the top of my head) ALL trace their ancestry back to the people of the Levant.
That point right there 🔥
Baby let me tell yall something that damn Quinten Latham is so smart and well spoken i love it....i literally can listen to you all day😘😘😘👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Is being smart and we'll spoken rare to you?
@@SharisVoice 😂
I agree....Whether I agree with him or not...
@@SharisVoice haha no sweetheart. I cant compliment a black man? Girl please go away
well you're not quite understanding is that saying that a man is well articulate and smart is not a compliment. Maybe you should open your surroundings be around more people who are well-spoken, college educated and smart and then you won't have this simple mind frame of thinking. And I won't go away I'll go where I want and do what I want you got a problem
“Without racism,what would you be” that part🙌🏼
Angie Nesbitt ---Toni Morrison ❤️❤️
RIGHTTTTTTT ! ❤
✊
Periodt
Nick cannon still shouldn’t have been fired
It was quite difficult hearing her bc of the yelling! Quinton spoke clear and calm which was more receiving..
I really wish he had done this alone or with someone else.
And she was all over the place due to not actually being present in the conversation. Her phone was a distraction
Heavenly's voice is like nails on a chalkboard.
My father made sure he taught me about OUR BLACK HISTORY and every weekend he made me write a paper on a different black person. It had to be on a black person that help created something to further our people this went on until I was in my 11-12 grade school year. During my schooling my turning in my work my teachers wouldn’t believe my work came from me and told me to bring my parents up to the school. Well, honey they must’ve thought I came from a one parent household until both of my parents showed up and let them teacher’s know what you guy’s are teaching my daughter is white washed. So I teach my daughter about her HISTORY cause she will not learn about her ancestors if it’s WHITEWASHED in SCHOOLHOUSE!! TAKE-CARE-FUNKY-HEAVENLY ❤️
I love how he breaks things ALL THE WAY DOWN for us. Definitely allows you to see different perspectives 💯
RESPECTFULLY Dr heavenly please pay attention to dineva when he speaks bc each time he speaks, you get on the phone when he listens intently when you speak
So true...that was annoying as hell. As well as all of the interruption and yelling she does. Ughh
She also won’t really talking about shit either tbh
OMG!!!!! I wrote a similar comment!! For me it was also disrespectful to those watching! She needs to be present!
Latrice Estell Yessss! Totally disrespectful.
I can't watch her talk on her own it's too annoying. Dineva has Hella patience.
This video is completely on point. It’s like my dad use to say, “you can say what you want to me in my house. You can curse me out if you like. Just have your bags at the front door ready to go when you do”.
Dr Heavenly need to pay attention and leave her phone ALONE that's VERY RUDE!
Dineva you articulated that so well.Bravo
Heavenly just cuts people off and goes on these rants and when she wasn’t talking she was texting. 🙃
Shout out to Q for his patience. Interrupting is hella rude🙄
She's not really equipped to have this conversation. Annoying...
I really couldn't follow where she stood on the issue. It was confusing.
Dr Heavenly there’s a lot you don’t know...a woman of your age would benefit you greatly if you took these learning points and do more research regarding our history as well as others....great job FD!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💯💯💯
She's quite annoying. She is definitely not equipped for this type of platform. Great job Funky Dineva!
Lord Dr Heavenly won't the one for this! Quentin you should've done this alone. I love how you broke everything down.
We can be pro black, without illegitimizing the suffering of others.
But we don’t have to withhold the truth because it makes others feel uncomfortable!
@@feebaby big facts. They don't get it's a tactic because if people knew the real truth that have a big problem.
Vikeysha Murray exactly, they can say and do whatever they want to us but we have to coddle their feelings. FOH
And pro black doesn’t equal anti-everyone else. That’s frail ass feelings and narcissism when someone who has been suffering worse than you and you get mad and in your feelings. Yes you have a deep cut but we have been stabbed and bludgeoned.
He didn't talk about their suffering. Watch the video.
Great commentary Que! This was very educational. I hope that some folks can be able to look outside of themselves & see what others are going thru. We’re not in the oppression olympics.
We need to acknowledge how intelligent Quentin is! 🗣GIVE THIS MAN HIS FLOWERS‼️
You would never know heavenly was the DOCTOR and Q was just the blogger....Heavenly came on here just to give her opinion....no real research was put into this topic....thanks Q for the effort you put into this topic....
Heavenly doesn’t have the intellectual range for this discussion. Her ignorance was a welcomed comedic balance. Well done Q.
Funky Dineva, I really respect your patience and the information you provide to everyone. I just want to say thank you for both.
I could have done without Dr. Heavenly's commentary on this. She simply isn't intellectually or emotionally eqipped to have this sort of layered and complex conversation/dialogue.
Amira Williams i can agree
LET'S NOT BE DEGRADING TO SOMEONE THAT'S WILLING TO TALK AND LEARN IN CONVERSATION THIS IS NOT THE TIME AND THE PLACE FOR THAT.
He should have picked quad she’s so educated & eloquent
Amira, I agree. And she barely let Quinton get a word in edgewise.
100 percent. I could have listened to Q by himself.
We still didnt get our 40 Acres and a mule! We are still owed that plus interest!
Hold your breath
Please no more Dr Heavenly, she added nothing to this conversation.
Let me say this and remind everyone of this point.. FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!! Be careful what you do, say and see!!
The devil hate the truth
As a Military Veteran I salute you for saying my favorite quote! Thank you!

This entire podcast is disheartening. This is a prime example as to why we need to have our own safe places and our own media markets (cable network, streaming network, production company, financial mechanisms, etc.). You can't have this type of conversation when you are in financial danger of loosing everything....present company included. There are a ton of books that speak to Nick's theories. Black people have been aggrieved by the Jewish community since we arrived in America. They have the right to be offended, but we are offended by their historical transgressions against us as well. Not one time have I heard anyone address those transgressions in the Jewish community. Not once. We also can not expect a group of people to address historical truths that will cause them considerable harm. We have to find out the truth for ourselves and defend our right to tell our truth. We still are not entirely free. This podcast proved that *sigh*.
Basically, this was the cloud looming over the conversation and it literally made them play mental gymnastics to justify it.
They need money and they have to walk in pins and needles to get it.
“Historical transgressions” i love that
Well you are right and nick has been in a position to create and build his own? Why hasn’t he done it? He coulda been made his own platform ala Tyler Perry and Oprah
@@asktheglutenfreechef3072 maybe he will now...
Nick used the wrong audience to say what he said.
As I listen to this, I’m getting educated more and more. This is great conversation, and I can’t wait to share this with my nieces and nephews as they get ready for college. They need to know this information to help them in the world.
DaBestPart 81 Well please do your own research as well. It’s deeper than this conversation.
Me too, great info, very eye opening
Cortez Miller oh trust me I have before this. I’m always just looking for more information, and when I find it; I like to share it.
I thought Nick was saying our heritage (Hebrew) was stolen and Jewish people didn’t like what he said.
That IS what Nick said.
From my understanding I was taught the biblical Jews are black soooooooo🤷🏾♀️
That’s exactly what he was saying and why they are pissed.
But that’s not our heritage.
My hearing f'ed up 😂😂😂I guess i was wrong too...
When we hear Richard Spencer make anti-semantic and racist remarks, we're DEEPLY offended. I don't know how people don't understand how Jewish people could be offended by the same rhetoric from Nick Cannon.
Thank you!!! Had Donald Trump said what he said black folks every would be offended af.
They are trying to hard to play devils advocate that they are playing mental gymnastics to justify “the other side”
That's what I've been saying. And first of all, nobody can talk about Jews in the public and not get cancelled. Remember Mel Gibson?
People also like to forget that Black Jews and Jews of Color exist
LD M exactly
We also don’t teach the ways in which enslaved Africans fought back against their oppressors in overt and covert ways.
Black people are the original Israelites. Look up the moorish people. I’m tired of the narrative that when you speak the truth you get condemned for it
Thank You.
Exactly!
Um, so what. Look how diverse the world has become. Look at all the contributions of different cultures. If you want people to know the facts, teach them without being destructive.
What do you all want?? A medal?? If you're the so called chosen ones then act like it instead of being the victims you all so accustomed being..
Aranielle B you are the problem. 🙄
Bravo to Quinton's opening statement!
I respect that Nick apologized for parts of what he said. However, ppl love telling blacks we need to learn from races, communities, cultures, etc. But, do those races try to learn about black ppl history. I seldom believe that a lot of these sects are devoted to learning about black people's heritage.
Right! Unless it's to copy and or profit from it.
They know about black history. I don’t understand why black people don’t get that, yea some of the stuff they tell Mexicans or Asians about black people be stereotypical stuff. But white people know our true history.
Lucky Sport Exactly
@@cortezmiller1899 not all. They were being taught the same bs in school. You have to be intentional to know our true history
The only thing they’re willing to learn about is our people’s enslavement 😠
They should teach the trauma that 400 years would do on any lineage that descends of such horror and terror.
I just LOVE listening to you Quinton. You speak so eloquently💜💜💜💜
I wish Dr. Heavenly would stop cutting Dineva off everytime he is making a meaningful point. She goes off-topic, just yelling and saying nothing.
1pimpafro her voice is like glass on chalk. She seems nice and all but not the voice.
ifgodwz1ovus And not the one to have deep conversations with. She is a surface talker only. Anything more is a no.
IDK Funky Dineva.....Nick Cannon did not get this from the Honorable Farrakhan. When he is speaking on Blacks being the Original Chosen People he is actually getting this from the life works and teachings of Dr. Francis Cress Welsing (rip). In my readings and research when the "Nick Cannons" are saying that "they rule" what he is usually referring to is the ownership of rights....whether it is music catalogs and masters....ie (for example Prince writing Slave on his face during his Good Morning America performance and changing his name to a symbol). Ownership in film (Matrix ownership, etc)... Lastly I do not know why Nick would even have Professor Griff on his podcast. That's like me holding a christian bible service and discussing the 16 crucified saviors that came before Jesus.....why would I do this when my audience only knows the bible/Jesus and has no interest in learning anything else. Mr. Cannon should have had his financial house secured (contracts in place, etc) before going down this road.
Eden Pagani exactly, they want to blame everything on Farrakhan even though he’s never harmed anyone! Dr Welsing was an amazing woman who spoke nothing but facts. It may hurt some feeling but the truth hurts!
Yes. Summing it up, know your audience.
Exactly.
Dineva made this video worth watching! Very intelligent and articulated his points well. Taught me things I never knew before. Understanding the origins of many aspects of our history and the historical context of other cultures/races. Thank you👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The Trina situation is extremely DIFFERENT, so don't compare them. Trick daddy was trying to help her during the conversation and she had background knowledge of things. She knew what she was saying was offensive, which is why she kept saying she didn't care who she offended
Right
Did Trina get fired?
Nay Logan Nope, but it was a petition to get her fired.
I think what he said did not warrant Viacom to fire him. My advice...read for yourself!
There is not a black business owner alive that would allow their white employee to say even a fraction of what nick said about white people and Jewish people and still have their job the next day. We gotta stop expecting other people to be better than us and take the high road that we wouldn’t take. We just as capable of civility and accepting the consequences of our words
read what exactly?
Thanks for breaking down anti-antisemitism with historical context that dates back to biblical times. I too believed that was a compliment but now understand how that statement is offensive. I don't like it when non-African Americans tell me I shouldn't be offended by something so I will not do that to anyone from another racial group.
Love This Conversation!! It needs to be Continuous with Funky Dineva on Every Platform....you break things down to where the uninformed becomes Informed👏
Great conversation!! We are our ancestors wildest dreams!!! I know our ancestors prayed hard and I will not disappoint!! We are so blessed!!
I think it’s EXTREMELY rude that she can’t pull herself away from her phone long enough to have a conversation! If you can not be fully present then don’t sit at the table! The disregard is disrespectful not only to Q but to those of us you are asking to consume the content. I could have just listened to Q because Miss Thang is nothing more than a distraction.
Without racism, what would you be?.....
Even if we owned the “stuff”/TV stations, radio etc... I still wouldn’t want to do or say the things they do to others... that would make us hypocrites and down right evil; that’s not what I want.
Exactly!@
I agree. Plus THEY control the networks. You're not gonna get sponsored to even be on THEIR airways talking such rhetoric.
I’m not sure Ms Heavenly was the best person to have on your show, she has no idea about history and was unable to make a worthy contribution-
When she started talking about prayer I was like oh boy. Yes keep praying to the same God and religion Massa used to keep black people enslaved. Maybe some day your children's children's children's children might get the acknowledgement and apology for slavery
I think this was hers but I was saying the same thing. I almost didn't click the link but I knew for sure Q was about to go in.
I don't know her but I watched bcuz of Dineva. I almost logged off bcuz of her. I stayed to hear Dineva p.o.v
Caroline Mcleod he could have done this on his own. Dr Heavenly should stick to gossip.
Q & Heavenly need to do more research then come back and have this discussion again.
She a Christian, like most Christians don’t really do much research.
On point!
@@cortezmiller1899 you hit the nail on the head and when you realize almost 80% percent if not more AA are Christians then it makes sense why we fall for every trick bag and forgive so quickly and martyr ourselves every chance we get. Slave mentality!
Cortez Miller So we generalizing now? Do you know most Christians?? Or did you research that?
Omg!!! Thank you, they’re talking out the side of there neck. I was rocking with Q til I saw this video.
So we are not allowed to speak the truth because of others secrets.
I think it’s more if your are going to speak your truth be aware of the platform you speak it on due to the fact you may offend the right people and it will cost you.
@@emmaolibrice1389 BINGO!!!🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
How is “owning and running” everything an insult??????
We're not allowed to call people animals anymore than we would want someone calling Blacks animals! If someone White called Blacks animals they would be fired as well.
Exactly! And because everybody so scared of being blacklisted and losing that bag. Tuh, I could never🙄
At this point, I’m not listening to anyone’s opinion that’s looking for a check from the dominant society. ✌🏾
Facts
THANK YOU!!!!!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
#Facts
PRACH ON IT
Q always breaks sh*t down in such a way that we all can understand it; cuz i was like what was wrong with what Nick said butt once he broke it down now I get it. Still Don't think the truth he spoke was wrong just not in good taste/context.
I graduated from Robert E. Lee High. LOL! The name was changed on yesterday to Liberty High.
I'm kinda of over worrying about another groups feelings when most ain't never gave a damn about me or my kind.
That part 💯
Yess I been on this I just be indifferent 😑 just like they do to us. We have no REAL allies nor self esteem or respect no boundaries as a ppl neither.
Funky Dineva, I am Jamaican and you spoke 100% Facts about our history in relation to homosexuality. I personally, don't judge anyone's lifestyle. Love who you love and be happy with yourself. What happened to our fore- parents were unfortunate, but I refuse to hate the LGBTQIA (hope I am not missing a letter) for it.
um No he didn't you cannot be Jamaican and believe this crap
tashnik I’m Jamaican and I agree with her
@@tashnik are you Jamaican?
definitely crap
@@tashnik well based on what I learnt in school and from my grandmother, the slave owners raped and beaten black men and also women. So is that the crap you are talking about?
There’s a difference between having money and integrity.
They wasnt offended. They use that as an excuse to be racist.
I dont believe u can decide on if someone was offended or not...just like someone who isn't of color, can't decide on what offends someone of color....
Stebbie J I agree. Because black people have been getting a lot of attention globally, they’re making everything an issue. They used him as an example to silence black people.
You cant say that "they" weren't offended any more than Trump can say that he has the totality of Black supporters. If he offended one person, he should apologize. We have to mature.
Exactly
Legslipsandlashes we also have to be honest. What did he say that was offensive?
“Without racism what would you be?” Powerful statement.
Funky I love hearing you speak. I’m going to send in a request for you to speak at my commencement when I graduate again lol.
Funky... I love your contribution, conversation, patience and articulation with this topic.
Dr. Heavenly ain’t ready.
1. If I had known Dr. Heavenly was a part of this video, I would NOT have clicked on the video. Her voice is too exaggerated and it sounds like she is straining to speak. I know she had to take 2 Advils after this stream for the headache she gave herself.
2. Quentin gave good commentary without all the fluff. He deserves a bigger platform.
3. Nick Cannon will be alright. He's smart he's talented he's resourceful and he does have people in high places who support him.
I wasn’t expecting Dr. Heavenly to be on. Hey sista girl.
Who she 🙄🧐
@@faiththomas1749 she mean as hell on Married to medicine uhhh.
@@Tropical442 🤣🤣🤣
She talks & interrupts wayyyy too much to say Nothing 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. It was good seeing her tho. 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
@@mrsyellowhawk5 Catch!!!!!!!!!!!
Nick cannon was talking about the melanin theory that was taught by dr. Frances cress welsing. Basically saying that genetically black people are more superior not because of our skin but our genetic make up as a whole. He was regurgitating what she said but she didnt say it like that she worded it much differently
Exactly. He stated he was regurgitating a point from another source. This is one of my issues with this.
Man I wish I could show you my twitter thread of me telling so many ppl that he was quoting a book I read when I was 16. I’m 38 now and she has valid points in the Isis Papers.. how the masses started to call me Anti-Semitic as well 😂😂 that’s they “go to” phrase🙄 May that Queen Rest In Peace because she NEVER wavered in her theory
Also I don’t like that fact that he started to say he was speaking stereotypical propaganda smh. That Queen was amazing.
Janet howard she was an amazing woman! 👑
Ok so I wasn't the only one. That is why all of these woke celebrities need to let people who have been doing the work speak. Once he mentioned her I knew he was about to Jack her words up because he is not as smart as he thinks he is.
Dr. Heavenly is preaching in here today! And that is one of the things I was going to say too - it's a lot of these people saying Nick is a "sell-out" when they don't have anything to show for their efforts. We have to stop thinking that it's OK to be broke - buying food, having a roof over your head, and paying for healthcare TAKES MONEY!! And those are just the basics!
This discussion was so informative. My "college educated self" learned so much today. Thank you Dineva and Dr Kimes. I'm here to stay on both channels.
This was a great discussion! You are so knowledgeable and articulate. I absolutely love your channel.
Hey Que I was in the LIVE with you and Dr .
Heavenly today! I adore you and all you do I will be here to support ! Much love ❤️
My grandfather is Jamaican and I never knew that history. Thanks for this talk, I learned a lot.
We could have did without doctor heavenly.... LOVE YOU DINEVA!!!
Nick Cannon spoke nothing but facts so tell me again why he needed to fired... Both Dr. Heavenly and Funky Dineva needs to educate themselves
They are trying too hard to play devil’s advocate.
If someone walked into your house and called you a savage would they be allowed to stay? We can’t have it both ways, as black people we’ve been oppressed but so has other groups, if they can’t tell us how to feel we do not get to tell them how to feel
He did speak some truth. However he couldn’t expect to keep his job after he said it.
TheChristelle234 thank you
I love you sooo much!! Thank you for your contribution to this world and The Culture. Your videos are always rich in wisdom and intelligence. Stay in your gift!!! 🥰🥰
There were still slaves until the 1960 and now the slaves are the incarcerated we always talk about slavery but Jim Crow might have been worse
Good conversation guys. I got a lot of knowledge from this post. ❤
Heavenly says black people need to work and stick together, but wasn't she trying to get Mariah, the black creator of the show and executive producer, kicked off the show? Heavenly slid right up next to those good white people and tried to get another black woman, Mariah, fired. Heavenly is a hypocrite.
And why is Heavenly being so condescending to someone with a different viewpoint? Heavenly acts like her education makes her right and that she can't be questioned. Why look down on someone because they may not have a college degree? Heavenly was so disrespectful.
I don't believe one word out of Heavenly's about the bible. Her behavior tells me that she not applying what she supposedly is reading. She is all words and no actions.
Dineva I love you but what Nick was saying went so far over you and Dr.Heavenly’s heads that you simply couldn’t catch it. It’s been scientifically proven that black people have genetically passed down trauma in our dna from slavery and tribalism and barbaric leanings are also genetically coded. Most human attitudes and behaviour have both a genetic and an environmental component. This is also true for our fear of others who are different to us - xenophobia - and intolerance of their viewpoints - bigotry. Hardwired into the brain’s amygdala region is a fear reflex that is primed by encounters with the unfamiliar.
Wow...
Yup epigenetics
I love intelligent, thoughtful conversation. Thank you Dineva and Dr. Heavenly.
I stand with Nick message.
Can you imagine if black women moved as fast as Viacom? The colorist black men say something offensive about brown/dark skin black women, we cut them off as fast as Viacom, we’d be so powerful. Nick has said problematic things about black women in the pass. Loosing no sleep over him as he didn’t know history. Even if you pay the smallest bit of attention. Prime example if you ever listen to Diddy & the Family “it’s all about the Benjamin’s” on the radio whether it’s local or internet the part when Sheek says “stack chip like Hebrews” is always cut out now.
@ V M, speak that.
THANK YOU!!! I felt like am I the only one that remembers his comments about blk/brown women not representing success when you reach the top.
Termika Stone then he wanted us to fight his “battle” against Eminem. Funny they want black women on the front lines of their “battles”. Black women: the convenient buffer between black men & white men because black men are afraid of white men & don’t mind sacrificing the unambiguous black woman to save himself. Black women recognize who the other enemy is. Who shot Megan? But I’ll digress this post is about Nick.
Public service announcement: this is how I & many other black women feel. You will not change my mind. If you don’t like what was stated then move on. I’m not going back & forth with you so save it.
Now he’s tweeting cryptic manipulative Tweets. He can’t hide behind black women & he seemingly can’t handle the consequences.
Does this mean that it is important that we teach ourselves our own history?
I got too excited when I saw a new video, and then I realized it was with Dr. Heavenly… I can’t do her voice... the screeching… Damn LOL
Wow!!!! Q, I’m a first generation born in America from a family of Jamaicans and I never knew that!!! These days I literally sit down and listen to my gmoms stories! I’m gonna ask her about that!! That’s deep!!!
Felicia Walls I literally just called my mom to tell her the same thing! We were like now it makes sense! We both learned something today.
First time watching Q and Dr. Heavenly. I love Q, but Dr. Heavenly is not my style. Thanks for the content Q!
🤣🙌🏽
ikr thats why she said what happened to freedom of speech bc she knows shes always talking out her ass and it wont be long before ppl get her ass up and out of here
I agree. I don't think she my cup of tea either.
Q, your thought process and how your break things down are fantastic and inspiring! You balance intellect, history, and humor quite well. Keep up the great work👍 Dr. Heavenly.... not my style👀
You are always so good with your words!!! Love you Dineva!! ❤️
“The best thing I can do for poor people is not be one of them.” ZAMN 🤭
I truly appreciate you all sharing this because I hadn't heard the historical contexts brought together that way. Also, I think Nick may have needed to consult Quentin before he spoke because the way Quentin articulated it was epic! We have to research and fashion our articulation of such matters in ways that are not offensive.The fact that he went and brought a Rabbi and specialist on the topics that he was speaking of shows that he has a desire to learn and re-process the information. Additionally, what Nick did was NOT THE SAME as the Caucasians that have been attacking Black people and bringing harm or police attention to them in unnecessary ways. Nick certainly shouldn't be cancelled, and should continue to thrive in his life and businesses.
Quentin, this is an enlightenment!!!!!!
THANK YOU QUINTIN I LEARNED SO MUCH, I LOVE WHEN YOU EDUCATE! 💙💙💙
Yaaas to the consistency! But yeah, in a nutshell, I didn’t & still don’t feel like Nick said anything wrong.
100000000%
Since they wanna reprimand Nick, movie producers that made white Egyptian movies should be held to the same standard.
Agreed
Fee Posey 💯!
We have been raised to view Jews through the white mans eyes.
Just like every other ethnicity has been taught to view black people through white fearful eyes. Very true. We have to take time to learn each other.
I worked in Jewish neighborhoods for years. I see them for exactly who they are. They are the same as white people.

Ask Theglutenfreechef If you pay attention to how Quinten is presenting his talking points: he’s organized, articulate, not screaming & constantly pushing around a bad weave. At some point you have to be saying to yourself “geez she’s annoying, I wish he had of done this live solo”. Don’t get me wrong I’m always down for my sistas but I have to call a spade a spade. I think if she’s going to be doing these lives, she has to do better. He’s done her a huge favor by jumping on this live with her because if he hadn’t, you wouldn’t be interested in watching this with just her. At least I wouldn’t.
Y’all are speaking the truth ❤️🙏🏽👏🏽thank you my people!
Thanks for the clarity👌🏽
