Intro - Talib Kweli

until the end.

We are GLAD to come and hear you speak.

We love it!

Kweli

doesn’t like me to talk about this but one time we were driving through the

Mississippi delta and there was a brotha runnin up the side of the road and he didn’t have any shoes on.

He didn’t have a shirt on and I started to drive

right by this man.

Kweli said «Stop the car because that brotha might be in trouble"and I stopped the car. Kweli said to the man he said «Brotha are you

ok do you need a ride somewhere?"and the man looked at Kweli and said

«Shhhhhh… I’m escapin!"and Kweli took him by the hand and said «My brotha

you didn’t get the memo, we have been free for some time now"well I’m wisinen

up.

Please welcome good friend, scholar, ghetto philosopher, three time Nobel

peace prize winner, first black man to pilot an aircraft, the nigga that made

up the Nike swoosh, the man that made Koolaid say «oh yeah!"Brooklyn's own…

Talib Kweli.
