Janet Mock Discusses Her Role In The Transgender Community, Her Book 'Surpassing Certainty' & More

[@KairoK]

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.

[@SeeParney]

Very true! She actually does her research!

[@daijada47]

Exactly

[@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.

[@afrosummertime4813]

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.

[@KLa35]

marcus cook That's not true, a lot of us don't think that way. It's a negative mentality and excuses that will keep things this way.

[@prissylily25]

James Tyrell It was a great conversation . I'm glad I watched. I learned a lot .

[@IBBMS]

^^Speak for yourself. Everyone doesn't serve you bullshit, fictitious, ignorant ass god.

[@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. Its hard to buy into your comment when Janet Mock is an activist, Best-Selling author and a great representation for the black and transgender community. Neither of us have lived her life so you can't speak on her choices! You dont know what conversations she has had with god.

[@rays.3242]

@ Last Action Hero Luckily that's just your opinion! Makes me wonder what and who you believe is a good example for the Black Community. Just because you don't agree with someone's choices doesn't make it wrong! We need to stop judging eachother! YOU ARE NOT GOD!!!

[@lenaadonis3701]

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. Staying silent when you see your brother destroying himself is hatred. 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 understand doing what's right for the community which is why Janet Mock is on the Breakfast club to be a spokesperson and representative for other colored people like her!

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]

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?

thats a myth. which is why i dont support the bullshit lol

[@lenaadonis3701]

There's a difference between life and sexual orientation. I'm sure somewhere deep down you're aware of that. Why do gay Black men constantly make KZbin videos about turning out straight Black men? I thought you guys preached tolerance and not conversion???

[@EricSanchez]

*Lena Adonis* NOTHING you say is changing nothing by commenting on youtube. The US is more pro LGBT than anti LGBT than it was 20 years ago, and 20 years from now it'll be even more so. It's weird how you know ALL these terms and you scan the comments for gay people to reply to. You are obsessed and hurt. Spending time on the wrong website. You're wasting your time. KZbin must make you feel great about your divorce.

[@Jreamz-ot2wi]

Lena Adonis that doesn't make any sense, and has nothing to do with the fact that this woman is being bashed and getting death threats because of what she does in her private life, people need to chill and stop worrying about the next person

[@lenaadonis3701]

*Jay Jay* What death threats is he getting. He admitted in the interview to raping a man by deception. He should be bashed for that. What people like this are doing is evil and hateful. Its not private when you admit and endorse taking away other peoples right to decide not to lay with a trans gender. *Gay Black men and trans women need to stop telling people no to worry about the next person while trying to turn out and convert straight Black men and women behind the scenes.* People have a right to bash this person who's saying HE has the right not to disclose that HE is transgender.

[@shawnjohn7744]

Get Officer Norman on here PLEASE!!!!

[@melanatedintelligence6977]

shawnjohn7744 why ..other then dating blAck women what does he do for blAck ppl ...n don't say give back ..cuz going to the hood n posting it on social media isn't really "giving back "

[@shawnjohn7744]

malique buffer I really want to see if he genuine. I need to hear why he picked the black neighborhoods, why he so focused on helping those individuals in need in his area. I just want more history on him. Plus ain't nothing wrong with dating black woman.

[@melanatedintelligence6977]

shawnjohn7744 no there is nothing wrong wit it but when that is main thing mentioned when u hear his name it makes u wonder ....i agree i truly want to kno if his work is genuinely from the heart !

[@AndreaMandovi]

Such a great interview Janet. You touched base on so many different topics and handles the interview effortlessly. Such an inspiration for so many trans women of color .

[@thatlovegirl12]

She's classy!

[@exoticcabarbie276]

This is amazing she is so positive and I'm glad to see one of my trans sisters who made something of themselves. I love her

[@cristinaapariciolinale2119]

I respect Janet as a producer and creator, however completely disagree agree with transgenderism and specially children taking hormones, that is not right for me. I didn’t feel they were being disrespectful, it’s just that like envy says most people don’t have that in their lives so you don’t know and really you don’t have to know or accept everything….

[@116Eggleston]

This is the woman of my dreams. If she say good morning to me I would probably die. Yes Janet I will marry you LOL

[@mauhuff]

As a Black gay brother I support Breakfast Club for having Janet Mock on. GENDER is social, SEX is biological. Janet is beautiful inside and out and I'm grateful she is enlightening our community. Let's let God do the judging and we can spread the love for one another. Stay Black yall

[@lenaadonis3701]

He*

[@angydelarosa1016]

Lena Adonis She's a woman.

[@lenaadonis3701]

Women don't have XY chromosomes.

[@angydelarosa1016]

Lena Adonis Chromosomes don't define gender.

[@lenaadonis3701]

*Angy De La Rosa* Most biologists, anatomists, endocrinologists, psychologists worth their salt would disagree with you. Maybe in the politically correct liberal lala land that you're from chromosomes don't define gender. People like you deal in fanciful concepts like _gender performance_ which in the real world, barring psychological issues, is largely dictated by the chromosomes present in every cell of your body

[@truthteller0785]

Beautiful Janet

[@godanasammy1425]

"We are actually reading this at my book club" Yee multi tasking books everyday 😂

[@ObeyAmmalol]

The like to dislike ratio proves that most of you guys didn't even try to attempt to watch the interview

[@TheLykon]

Obey Amma watched the whole interview still gave it a dislike

[@quintenisliving7204]

Janet is the baddest in the game....period

[@perspicaciouscritic]

I don't understand the amount of dislikes: this was an informative, enlightening and educational discussion. I suspect the negative voters didn't even watch the interview. They just saw the word "transgender" in the title then closed their minds.

[@MrAlexander1219]

Much love to Janet! She is so courageous for coming on the show and being open/willing to be transparent for so many people that can not. I read her first book and can not wait to read the second.

[@jaceambition7701]

A lot of ignorance in these comments....That's why our race (black) is having the struggle in America now....We can't even accept and respect our own, but we want others to do the same for us??? So fucking hypocritical...

[@suporiaa6826]

I am one the most articulate people you will meet. But Janet is communication goals forreal! Such a great representation of black women.

[@jordankennedy9053]

my god. cringing so hard at some of these questions. she didn't have to answer any of that and she did. I hope she got to take care of herself after this interview.

[@Empress1610]

Charlemagne is ignorant AF...he bothers me

[@Imsoaudrey]

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

[@rhondell5724]

Yee always know somebody

[@disorientedbutterfly]

They ran this interview so poorly

[@DSa75044]

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

[@vashtilou731]

She is freaking GORGEOUS!!!!

[@taylorbrione]

Envy is always late. He catches on to stuff after everyone else has figured it out in their mind.

[@DWORLD-do6sy]

She's beautiful and articulate: two qualities I find sexy in women. I ca respect her as an individual and admire her struggle as black and trans. 😱💜👌🏽💪🏿

[@tratymorg]

This is the only time America's white supremacy isn't threatened by black men is when the testicles are chopped off. Dude looks like a drag queen, all the women allowed this weird reaction to occur,...Why are you all excepting this, for one thing, this is an agenda by the government to depopulate the world. And noticed how she dated a military man just like his father, meaning he was rebelling.

[@erinlevere3976]

Jesus Marshall meaning you reaching out of inherited prejudice. A place of ignorance

[@bart234465]

I cannot believe these grown adults don't already know this shit

[@chimcham6762]

This was a really wonderful interview. Really up there with some of the best Breakfast club interviews.

[@ansiloislander2748]

So, Charlamange can barely read but is a best selling author??

[@rays.3242]

Ghost writer!!

[@prettydivine07divine86]

She's beautiful and very insightful which exceeds past some of these ignorant lowlifes who want to depict on her identity in the comments. THE BLACK COMMUNITY WILL FAIL TILL THEY REALIZE LOVE BUILDS YOU AND NOT HATE.

[@camk6986]

I'm happy for her, but yeezus she lost me when she said she had sex with dude and didn't tell him initially. That's F*CKED up.

[@camk6986]

Does it matter if you're knowingly having sex with a man or woman? Yeah...I'd say so. Wouldn't that be the very foundation of informed consent?

[@jacksonjulewry9719]

If he did that to me He might as well pick a grave sight where he would feel comfortable being buried at cause that nigha dying worse the kain on menace to society

[@EricSanchez]

7Reload - stop stalking the comments section for anyone who supports Janet and calling other people sick. You watch SO many videos about the LGBT community and are always in the comments section

[@kayalex83]

I know, that caught me off guard. Now I understand where part of this whole convo came from the other day about trans women revealing who they are before engaging with a heterosexual male. I didn't know she had actually done it. Wow.

[@TinoMaximus]

Hell yeah it matters!!! 😡😡

[@Coolness18304]

why charlamagne didn't tell HIM to put her lips on the mic? you gotta have that same energy charlamagne!!!!

[@joannadams6688]

Plug Industries nah, he knew what time it was. All the ladyboys would be in his dm instantly. He ain't gonna risk it 😂😂😂

[@eny4life718]

lmaooooooooooooo

[@EmilioMejia]

I'm only finding this interview now in 2023 and it is so uncomfortable to watch. I wonder if DJ Envy would still ask these awful questions today. Janet had so much poise answer those questions without telling him off. I keep having to pause because I want to cringe my guts out every time he opens his mouth.

[@Artezzio]

7:35 LOOOOOOL WE ALLLLLLL WERE THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING ENVY AND CHARLAMAGE WERE THINKING

[@XsweetstarliteX]

ENVY IS SO OBSCENE. WHY IS HE SO CRUDE, ALWAYS ASKING ABOUT WOMEN BEING WET. EURGH.

[@DeemMeBeautiful]

I like Janet Mock

[@covergirl612]

Thank you Breakfast Club for having Janet Mock. She is such a positive rolemodel and messenger. Knows exactly how to speak on this and educate us all. Thank you again.
