Say what you want about Angela Yee, but if it wasnt for her research most of these interviews would be over in 5 mins or simply filled with small talk.

[@RellDevon]

Amen i always looking forward to her questions in her interviews because she does heavy study and research and always execute the right questions.

[@leahtheestallion7687]

Charlamagne and Envy knew nothing about her. They're so embarrassing.

[@thebreezepodcast1867]

Black Kurama Her name is Janet Mock, she’s been interviewed by plenty of other straight men that took time to do research. Conducting an interview without doing any type of prior research is the definition of lazy and shortsighted.

As a gay male, there's a lot of things that I didn't understand about people who are transgender that I now do. I have much respect for Janet Mock and I commend HER for HER courage to speak out. Shout out to the breakfast club for this interview. Although there are people who just don't care to understand, but oh well. Life will go on, as it should.

I already know some comments will be disrespectful but i hope people listen so we can better understand each other and work but as a community. The black communities biggest issue is a lack of unity.

[@mcook-69don]

James Tyrell we will never have unity because black ppl find ways to not like other black people. For one gangs will not unify then religious blacks wont accept certain ppl then just because you may be a darker shade light skinned blacks might not accept you. Its always something and its terrible but its reality.

[@AveMcree]

James Tyrell I think the real problem with black people is the fact we think every issue is exclusive to only us! A lot of you guys don't realize other races go thru the same thing. Including slavery! Shows how closed minded we can be to current events because of agenda.

[@darkskinss]

Miss Mock handled this interview with such grace. Even when Envy and Charlemagne asked her very coarse questions regarding her physical surgeries and referred to her past episode of stripping as her being a man in a bikini on a stripping pole, she still played the game and smiled. This is why she is a champion for transgender rights. Her intelligence is astounding, and I love that she was able to educate without preaching.

[@erikaarnold4780]

Chaz * I think people are lacking empathy when the FIRST thing they want to know about a t.g. experience is all about the surgery and their sex lives...there are soooo many issues facing these folks that have nothing to do with sex and everything to do with marginalization, rights, economics, and personal freedom. They just don't seem to get it. Janet handled this with class.

Period. A lot of you need to learn the difference between 'visibility' and 'agenda.' Every one does not have the same story and you need to get over it. I will say this to my trans brothers and sisters, be honest with your "T" when you have physical encounters. Every one deserves the right to know who they are getting involved with: gay, lesbian, straight, bi, trans, etc.

Here's a crazy idea.Different people find happiness in different ways. Why not let people be whatever they want to be? Only time you should have any legitimate grievance is if you slept with some transgender person and they didn't tell you they were transgender. i'm 100% for transparency up front. But other than that, why get so worked up about how other people want to live their lives if they haven't caused you any harm? Life is too short to hold so much hate & vitriol.Maybe live and let live.

[@scarredfaces]

Chance The Trapper It's a gay agenda pushing the idea that it's okay to be gay when it's NOT okay, look at rappers today, look at this black man acting like it's ok to be gay. This is just another scheme by white people to end our race.

[@chancefurlong372]

+Inneundo Hazbarz No offense my man, but did you really just compare sex change to murder? I think the difference between a murderer and a transgender is that the person having a sex change isn't harming anyone.

[@chancefurlong372]

+DJ Akademiks' Yeezy Plug But ask yourself one thing. Have you ever heard of a man who was into women, then watched a couple advertisements with gays and turned gay?Anyone? Do you think after watching this video you're gonna say "i like men now"? You should raise your children however you want to raise. That's your prerogative my man. But i really don't think people just wake up and change their sexual preference after seeing a couple gay people on TV.

[@thickbeauty1977]

If you're talking about literally anything else, people grow and change. Adults aren't babies because they were born that way. I don't understand why you think people don't change from the way they were born. Also, if you're talking about genetics, then mutations can happen and spread too. DNA isn't always the same as what presents on the outside. DNA can be different in different parts of the body. Are you the same as you were as a baby?

[@rays.3242]

After watching Bernice Burgos and even Joseline's interview I can appreciate Janet Mock for actually standing for something. The women who are hating on her are more than likely jealous because she is a beautiful and intelligent trans woman who represents femininity better than most and they're just intimidated by her so the use the "but she used to be a boy" card to diminish her worth. Straight men or men (who are attracted to women) can not say that they wouldn't be sexually attracted to her if it was not for the fact that she used to be a boy. Janet embodies all the physical characteristics that men generally find attractive in women. So their real issue is not that they wouldn't want to get with her, its that admitting it or thinking it challenges their masculinity and everyone knows that's a man's greatest fear is to have his masculinity challenged. Therefore, that says more about them than it does about Janet!

[@rays.3242]

@Last Action Hero to be heterophobic is foolish because without a mom and a dad none of us would be here.

[@rays.3242]

Rey S. that _don't judge me_ isn't Biblical, it's from a Tupac album. When you see your people going off, you're supposed to say something.

A man who throws away his manhood at a time when the Black community needs Black men to be men the most is not a hero or a good example.

[@rays.3242]

@ Lena Adonis that's only necessary when you see something that is hurting/harming them in some way, but when someone is living their truth and are content with themselves and their lives, what is being destroyed?

I cringed so hard everytime they called her "a transgender" smh. *Transgender is an adjective, not a noun.* For instance: Black woman. Latino woman. Trans woman. It comes before the noun, people. It modifies the noun.

Yasss Janet Mock ❤️🙌🏽😍 what a wonderful role model !!✊🏽

[@michaellayne5312]

Powerful interview! Powerful discussion!

[@makenzee3222]

This is what I like to see, communication & understanding 👏🏾

[@jessm9520]

I would love to see her speak somewhere- she is a very intelligent woman and so articulate (goes without saying). I think she does a great job of breaking things down in a way that people who are less familiar with the topic can still draw connections to it and gain a better understanding. This is a conversation worth sharing, especially amongst our community.

[@DSa75044]

She's amazing, I am so proud of the work she's doing :)

He is not a woman! Can't bear black babies and was born with a penis!!👎👎

[@mutsamambo578]

This interview was amazing, she is amazing, Janet is inspiring, just a go getter, Angela is a brilliant interviewer, Envy was so eloquently respectful and Charlemagne asked the questions I was even scared to think. It is a difficult topic to navigate respectfully and the Breakfast Club did a sterling job!

[@thegreatdanaj]

Thanks for having her on the show. I'll be reading her new book.

[@franchoprada9171]

Her ponytail is giving me LIFE!!!

[@lavernewilliams1518]

enjoyed your first book will be purchasing this new one can't wait!

[@stylecollective-qt9um]

Janet is academically and emotionally intelligent with drive, integrity, and class...and for all her life battles hard won and hard lost, her mistakes and successes, she's trying to pay it forward from all the lessons she's learned: she really is black excellence personified.

[@vashtilou731]

She is freaking GORGEOUS!!!!

[@TrstnWilson]

My girl!!! Love her so much!

[@nicolemontgomery9463]

This was by far THEE BEST THEE BEST interview I've ever heard on Transgender people...Janet Mock was very eloquently candid and did not hesitate to answer any and all questions. she made me want to hear her story understand her experience. one of the most important things ppl can do when advocating their story is have the proper mannerism. no one is receptive to anger, hate, ignorance and impatience. Janet was the total opposite of that and what we mostly see Transgender ppl being represented as. although this is my 1st time ever hearing of her, I can almost tell her mannerism on this show is also how she conducts herself thru out her life. I can respect her work and activism. I luv the fact that she is true to herself and Lives her truth. she also accepts responsibilty for her life and choices and ALLOWS ppl that she has been with intimately aware of her journey. I can now appreciate looking at Trans ppl from their perspective. she answered ALOT of questions for me. I may NEVER agree but at least now I understand the why and how and the differences. each one teach one....Thank you!!!

[@naiya1542]

Very intelligent. Very well spoken. I only have positive things to say about this beautiful woman. It's amazing that we now have someone as wonderful as her to use her knowledge and experience to speak on topics such as this one.

[@8701mika]

power to her, this was a great insight

[@leftcoastgal5134]

Love her. Great convo! I would have loved to have heard more about her life beyond gender. Please have her on to talk about everything else!!

[@darinj2033]

I love her...smart, positive and understanding. RESPECT!!

[@lulustar4412]

She conducted herself so well and answered those questions and gave her experience in an amazing way...while sitting through the male hosts and their ignorance...which is a societal issue that a lot of people should address and educate themselves on, but I love Janet Mock and her work with POSE and look forward to seeing her bring education about the Trans community to more.
