Don't React to Disrespect-Respond!

In this episode of The Cave Podcast, I sat down with two of my Cave of Adullam students Elisha Nunn and Josiah Humphrey to discuss what happened at the Oscars, and how we should respond instead of react to disrespect.

Men like you is what all AMERICAN boys need in their lives. I'm 45 years old and grew up without a dad and now I'm a father of 3 and it's hard to teach what you don't know.

[@Bloody_yank516]

I just want to take this time to thank you Sir! You are an example of what masculinity and what a healthy warrior looks like for black men.

[@ChinoV]

You are rights, but it’s not just “black men,” but all men. It’s not just the “black men” who need God’s guidance given from Mr. Wilson, but all men. I got brothers of all colors who need this message. This message crosses all racial barriers because it comes from the most high and speaks to us men and warriors. I understand what you’re saying, but everyone, white, brown, black, etc. need a Mr. Wilson in their life to help guide them. The Lord is justing using Mr. Wilson as a vessel. God bless my brother.

[@andrewthornquist8186]

Agreed! And also for me as a white man.

[@tubbyrainbow111]

For men. Period.

[@youngblackking3255]

@@ChinoV Black men need this type of help the most because we've been conditioned with a self destructive mentality. Other ethnicities of men haven't been plagued with the same amount of emasculation throughout history like American black men have. Yes this information can be applicable to all men, but American black men can especially benefit from this. All the unresolved trauma that black men haven't dealt with has caused us to self sabotage. Black people in general are burdened with a very acute situation that requires understanding of our history to comprehend.

[@JacklinTerry-Lathan]

Yes! For all men.

[@LoneStoneMaalik]

Chris handled that very well. I commend him for his control, cause I know a lot of men that would’ve been bumpin off rip.

[@MrrrrNox]

Love the work you're doing man. As a 21 yr old white male I'm just realizing this myself, learned from experience. Every male needs a mentor like you, thank you for your vulnerability and showing us the REAL definition of a man.

[@sicklecellwithdr.o]

I’m 28 and I’m still learning how to respond to disrespect instead of reacting to it. I am rarely disrespected so when someone does disrespect me badly, I may react because the situation is foreign to me.

I love their body language when they say, yes sir. It seems deeper than them just saying it because they were taught. It feels they are calling him sir out of honor and respect for him and that is a beautiful thing!!! This is such rich content. New subscriber here.

[@TElias5]

what you said at the end is so true. As men we can easily let our egos get in the way. We may mistake it as protecting the people or things we care about but really we’re protecting our egos. Controlling our emotions takes alot and its hard. lashing out like will smith is easy

[@tikvahestrada4066]

[@marymac1972]

When you walked in self control it caused the lack of self control in the other man to be front and center. Walking in the fruit of the Spirit is soooo powerful!

[@raykelley4371]

We need more open conversations between the older and young men!!!

[@lisalewis-peck3881]

Thank you! Thank you for speaking with young men, thank you for showing us how society has set us up to react instead of process a situation, and finally thank you for breaking down what possibly was going on with Will Smith's reaction. Hopefully, he (Will Smith) will see this, stop going around the world to medite, come home and talk to you. You help everyone men, women, and children.

[@chaunceyjames9193]

Shalom brother. Thank you so much for this message. After listening I had to go and apologize to my daughter for handling a situation wrong with her after I felt that she disrespected me. I used my ego as dad to berate her and take all of things away instead of using it as a teachable moment. God is truly speaking through you brother . Thank you again.

[@elikplimwilson8915]

I do not even know what to say Sir! THANK YOU, Mr Wilson. THANK YOU, Sensei. Thank you brothers!

[@evandercaldwell9993]

Thank You Mr. Wilson for being an inspiration, I can't express my appreciation enough for You teaching and respecting those young kids and showing them, that there is a different way!! Many blessings along Your way, may Your endeavours and projects be blessed always and in the Highest!! Thank You 🙏💖 Salaam

[@SaintGiablo556]

We need more role models like you in this society! Emotional intelligence is important

[@thebaileybarakshow6481]

Before Chris said the joke, he did say "Jada you know I love you" there for letting them know it's not personal what I'm about to say.

[@Junemari]

You are not only helping the young boys but adults too. I am always on gusts about leading my emotions till I had an outburst at work, and straight away noticed what I had done and apologised immediately. But that was a shock to the system for me. Thanks for the advice, ‘process before reacting’.

[@JoyBeforeHer]

Sooo good. Thank you for what you do! 🙏🏼

[@Conover113]

Once again Mr. Wilson, you have taken the time to not just elevate the conversations surrounding this sad incident- you have taught us all how to be better humans for ourselves and to others. Thank you🙏🏽💙🙏🏽 #inspiring #wecandobetter #blessedLesson

[@rolandorobles6375]

Thanks, Jason! This conversation was much needed. I found myself being challenged to rewire my thinking. I know it takes a lot of awareness and approaching with an open mind since society has conditioned us to retaliate and react in violence. I love how you pointed out there is a way to confront someone about a situation with the intent being not to have unresolved anger coursing through our spirits. Lastly, thank you for being vulnerable in your last story!

[@Indigenous-ss4co]

I’m a 24 yr old & I just found out about you Mr. Wilson through your book “Cry Like A Man” & literally a few days before I had gotten your book m twice showed me a video of you talking to the young man who was crying. God works in mysterious ways, I didn’t even know it was you who wrote the book until today of me looking you up. You’re a humble soul & I am going to soak up as much knowledge from you as possible. Keep going man we need people like you in the community of men. ALL MEN. God Bless you!

Brother , the work and anointing God has giving you has been a true blessing to many including myself especially. I’m now on the second book Battle Cry , I’ve recommitted my life back into Christ and I am now actively in the fight . I am now facing the challenge of having a conversation with my real dad . To be honest , I am a little hesitant because I’m simply not sure how it will be taken or if he would care . I won’t back down from this fear though because I feel it will unlock some things in my life . I pray God continues to use you and that he gives you the fuel needed for this Marathon . SHALOM my BROTHER IN CHRIST. I praise God for your ministry

On my school bus these fellas a bit older than me are always playing childish games teasing me.Often when they get on the bus or I get off one of them runs up to me and goes “got your nose!” Childish but it still angers me that they disrespect me like this.I often contemplate retaliating but I understand that is foolish yet I don’t know what words to say and I doubt if I had the right words they would even take me seriously. What am I to do?

[@journeyman2757]

Checked this out b/c saw on the Tok, you said they took page down. I wonder why if you most likely followed guidelines. Very inspirational message and topics relatable to anyone, especially youth. What’s sad, is after I got off, I went back on Tiktok and two swipes up and see a woman, mature one like someone grandmother with nightgown on and she starts moving and I’m like how you try to silence someone spreading wisdom, intellect etc, take down the vid but allow some of this crazy, controversial content. No cap we shouldn’t be able to see a nipple imprint through anyone shirt. Anyway, great message

[@heppal1828]

React vs Respond: They're spelled differently. Great content again.

Dope conversation

[@ap8833]

This was a insightful exchange with these your brothers. Emotional intelligence is vital to defeat fragile masculinity. Prisons are full of brothers who felt "disrespected" and over compensated by reacting in violence . Our culture teaches us to suppress emotions, ultimately stumping the development a Man needs to better himself and inspire those around him.

I think Chris Rock knew he crossed the line. There comes a point as a comedian where you know certain things are out of bounds and inappropriate. We talk about the physical violence, but Rock used "verbal violence", can be even more destructive.

Also Will did send a message to the world that he is fed up with having to have a HOLLYWOOD SMILE while people slam him via his wife! HE CAN BE SEEN AS THE NEW DENZEL AND THE WORLD IS TREATING HIM LIKE A SIMP BC THEIR FAMILY IS TOO FUCKING OPEN

[@Qballblack]

I'm glad you made this, I was ready to beat tf outta someone til this video. Thanks man.

[@yammak2004]

Part of the problem with Will Smith and this was made everybody's business but part of the problem with the situation with Will Smith and his wife is he was forced to be in a open marriage because that's what Jada pinkett Smith it. Pretty much the only type of woman that wants to be in that type of relationship is a covert narcissist. Most of the time there's only one personality type that is in a marriage with a narcissist. And that personality type is a codependent personality type. I want struggled with codependency. The way I deal with that is a man is through cardiovascular workouts six times a week two to three times a week I do weights I also do karate and I do boxing when I can. I'm a first generation Japanese American. I have two children that I raise I used to be married to a covert narcissist. I was once in that same position.

[@drillosophy1012]

You’re right. And it’s something that people aren’t talking about enough. This is a narcissist/codependent dynamic.

[@yammak2004]

@@drillosophy1012 one thing that is correct is Will is having to face the consequences of his choices. Another thing that is obvious is Will has never been to therapy, for either the abuse he's been through with his father or the abuse of his wife that still doesn't excuse his choices. I've been very specific about not choosing violence yes I've had a blow up and I've yelled. But I took my ass to therapy and I continue to work on bettering myself physically and emotionally.

[@sheldonblackman3715]

I feel like at the end of the day, chris is a comedian and will could have walked into any comedy and he or like in this case his wife jada, could have been the target (This Is What Comedians Do) I feel like it was beyond an overreaction and let's be honest and clear, had that been let say Mike epp, do anybody Believe will would have had that same energy, he did that because it was Chris and he knows Chris ain't built like that, but anyhow I agree we as men sometimes let our emotions get the bttr of us, rather then to think before we act, not looking ahead to consequences to come, we have to learn to be balance in our decision making and always understand the important of keeping our egos in check, remembering how quickly not doing so, can lead to serious consequences and even ones death, nice info and lessons in this video ! Appreciate you my brother
