[@bronxbutee]

I’m floored! This is a grave injustice. Someone needs to be held accountable for ruining the lives of these ladies but also depriving students of awesome people to encourage their lives. The system is broken! I just could not believe these ladies got RICO charges. We have to take our local elections seriously.

[@Game6Sports]

I'm feeling this message!!! Fight for our teachers! 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@keltondaniels6338]

Amazing interview! I commend and salute you TI for being a beacon to the injustice these women were dealt. Continue to use your platform and help elevate and educate. To the women, I pray justice prevail.

S/o to Tip, shedding light on this

[@blkmpwr]

Saw the movie the other day. This interview answered alot of the questions I was left with. Only Black educators did time in this case huh? 🤔 Shaaaady

[@SweetestGapeach1127]

40yrs was wayyyy too much😔

[@soniadavis1094]

TI... I applaud you highly for what I witnessed today. I was so incredibly touched and thankful that you are using your platform to bring about change! You taking the time to attend the service of George Floyd touched me to the core! May God richly bless you and Tiny abundantly!

[@evolvinglight6461]

I absolutely agree with you, brothers like himself killer mike, and even 2 chainz paying for those kids graduation in the Southside area.. Tip is leaving a blueprint for the youth on how to properly use your platform.

Great show ti

[@vanessamiller5427]

I have kids in the early 30's. I am in Douglas county. I knew when my kids were in middle school the testing 'no kid left behind was targeted to keep black kids behind. Cheating was done here but I felt it was extremely unfair to target and jail these teacher. This was a travistie. Bush pushed a false narrative..smh.

[@brooklynnikki478]

This is 😭 so sad.

[@currentevents6303]

NEVER PROTEST AGAIN***** They knew what you didn’t know🤔 POWER IN NUMBERS 😇 Create our own brand like Coke, Nike, etc... If your really as mad as you presented yourself to be, here is possibly a better answer that can complement your rap. This will allow what we all feel emotionally to materialize financially.😇 Answer: 40 million “blacks” X $5 dollars a month = $200 million a month X 12 months = $2.5 billion per year.😳 GDP $2.5 Billion a year (higher than some foreign countries) - You really want to be 👂👂👂👂👂? We (all of us) can start a unifying single nonprofit, and make it a brand endorsed by every artist, that helps rebuild the “black community” literally overnight in real time, starting with totally eradicating police violence, as well as community violence, starting with Chicago. 😭😱 Quick question: When you pay for something, do you give it to someone else to pay it for you hoping that they pay your bill? So stop giving to charities and you don’t see any return. We pay we play. Quick question: How do you expect to be heard and we don’t $lobby the politicians👀? We pay we play Quick question: who would you listen to, someone who gives you money or stops your money? We pay we play Answer: like the old saying “money talks bullshit Walks” Road to righteousness peace and economic freedom is the concept. You can be one of the many people who care and have money, that can be trusted with such a large sum of money. With all the great minds in the “black community“ we should be able to work wonders and help spark the creation of a “black” enlightenment and a “black” renaissance. Just $5 dollars a month. Our greatest Leaders, lawyers, accountants, etc...can donate there time and integrity to help transform the “black community” overnight literally and stop waiting for handouts and crumbs. Exodus 6:6-8 Therefore say to the children of Israel: "I am the LORD; I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, I will rescue you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments. I will take you as My people, and I will be your God. Then you shall know that I am the LORD your God who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. And I will bring you into the land which I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and I will give it to you as a heritage: I am the LORD." We have to move quickly because violence and death (riots) stands at the gate and very near.... P.S Tupac said, “I may not change the world, but I will spark the brain of one’s who will.....

When the other women talk, it would have been nice to whisper to that one woman to make sure she talks into the mic so people can hear you.

[@Geekmasterproduction]

Her mic was messed up. You could here it buzzing on and off at a few points.

[@oliviarodrigues2323]

It would be great to know how many students were accepted to college from that school system. They were not taking kickbacks, but their reputation for students going to college is probably where they collected the effect - data of success and its monetary value in the education world, although the administrators and teachers did not individually financially benefit for cheating.

[@foreveryougrandmom8505]

I obviously didn’t watch the whole thing before I asked the question 😒😭😭

I don’t think this would have happen if they were white sorry

[@alleyoop9698]

True. One comparative, in Georgia, to this case is in Floyd County. Read up on it. It involves school employees who actually gained and are still free.

[@rickierecardophotography7406]

This is T.I.’s best work as a media pundit in my opinion

[@mikecampbell5178]

Stepping into some real reporting and journalism here.

[@lhightower2023]

Oh MY! another great one. The truth will always come to the light. This is horrific and never ending. As we see in real time, Dastardly deeds continue to carry on that only bring hard ache and pain to the ones Left Behind. The students who are supposed to be the future. 🥺

[@alleyoop9698]

The way her voice cracked when she said " I'm on parole now." broke my heart.

[@Itsadivinething]

There are also educators who dont care about the childs education. I used to be bad in math until 8th grade my math teacher took his time and made it fun. Many teachers bring their frustrations to work and hearts are not in the right place

[@completelength]

TI Is Very Intelligent

[@squirrelsgarden]

"We trusted the criminal justice system". That was their first mistake: never trust thine enemy.

[@veronicacooper3521]

A real good place to start is people that seek power are often doing so for the wrong reasons. True leaders can do so from any position. You don’t have to be in church to walk in the way of God. You can always show people better than you can tell them. Sadly power seekers often are filling a really deep routed insecurity. Leaders or “Alphas” will naturally have power as they develop followers with this comes haters. You just gotta keep it pushing and play your role whatever that is. Be a part of the solution regardless of the circumstances thrown at you!!

[@BALLOUTTILUFALLOUTTV]

That was a dope episode because I didnt know about this story. Gained knowledge today

[@DemecosChambers]

Ok we need to raise the voticeand awareness of the RACIAL INJUSTICE these Black Women Educators faced!! I remember this case in the city and Purdue was trying to make an example of these Black women because it happens in a Blue Dem voting district. He had been fail in GA black students and they were his out from accountability 💯

[@attsealevel]

Me? Little ole Me? I aint done Nothin.

[@kimberleighlivingston9411]

I went to private school and I had two teachers that accused me of cheating. My Mom went up to that school twice and lost her mind. I was never accused of cheating again. My Mom knew, I went to sleep with my face in my books.

[@oliviarodrigues2323]

Again, this is an example of a systemic problem that was inherited from the old segregated system. This had BEEN going on since the whole education administration were majority black men until they moved on to corporations and business; I'm not TOTALLY familiar with the details, BUT I do remember that school system lost their accreditation and their diplomas were considered void. It was cold these ladies had to take the hit with ANOTHER exposé that has come as a result of the old segregated system rules. They are right - they pulled out some antiquated education rules from WAY back in the day because it was a problem that came from the old segregated south. Jim Crow stuff.

[@mapson4068]

This was incredible discussion of TRUTH In regards to the public education system!

[@SweetestGapeach1127]

This hits me so differently because my babies were involved in this ... being a mother of daughters... I always thought my babies were getting great education because I was receiving awards from them that seems like they are not as valuable as they seem. Principal lists awards. Honor Roll & others... I tell you it was hard. But I did everything I could to ensure they all graduated. I’m proud of my babies for overcoming this struggle. Thank you T.I. For another great one🙏🏾
