Hey White People! With Jon Batiste And Friends, Vol. 2

>> Stephen: WELCOME BACK, EVERYBODY.
SAY HI TO JON BATISTE AND STAY HUMAN, RIGHT OVER THERE.
THAT MAN, RIGHT THERE.
THAT MAN, RIGHT THERE!
>> Audience: STEPHEN!
STEPHEN!
STEPHEN!
STEPHEN!
>> Stephen: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
LISTEN, LISTEN.
JON, I JUST WANT TO TELL YOU, I'M ENJOYING A LITTLE COFFEE
RIGHT HERE.
>> Jon: OH, YEAH.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
YOU KNOW HOW I LIKE MY COFFEE?
>> Jon: HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT?
>> Stephen: I LIKE MY COFFEE LIKE I LIKE MY HISTORY MONTHS,
BLACK.
THERE IT IS.
WELL, BLACK HISTORY MONTH IS OFFICIALLY OVER.
IT JUST FLEW BY AS IF WE GAVE BLACK PEOPLE THE SHORTEST MONTH
OF THE YEAR.
BUT WITH JEFF SESSIONS AS ATTORNEY GENERAL, I HAVE A
FEELING WE'LL BE MAKING MORE BLACK HISTORY EVERY DAY.
JON, MY FRIEND, HOW WAS YOUR BLACK HISTORY MONTH.
>> Jon: IT WAS GOOD, WE DID A LIVE SHOW TO CAP IT OFF.
>> Stephen: WE CAPPED IT.
>> Jon: CAPPED OFF THE SHOW, THE BEST MONTH OF THE YEAR.
>> Stephen: THAT'S RIGHT.
I LOVE HEARING FROM YOU JON, AND I LOVE KEEPING A DIALOGUE OPEN
WITH YOU.
IT'S SO IMPORTANT THAT WE DO.
>> Jon: YES, YES.
( LAUGHTER ).
>> Stephen: BECAUSE IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND EACH
OTHER'S PERSPECTIVE IF WE'RE GOING TO GO FORWARD AS A NATION
FULL OF LOVE.
I UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE A SHORT P.S.A. ABOUT THAT SUBJECT.
>> Jon: YES, I DO.
ROLL IT!
HEY, WHITE PEOPLE!
>> EVERY FALL, MY WHITE NEIGHBOR INVITES ME TO GO "APPLE PICKING"
WITH HIM AND HIS FAMILY.
THAT'S WHERE YOU GO TO SOMEONE'S FARM AND PAY THEM TO STAND IN
THE SUN AND PICK CROPS OFF A TREE.
LISTEN, I AIN'T FALLIN' FOR THAT TRICK AGAIN.
THE CLOSEST THING I'LL GET TO PICKING UP ANYTHING IS MY CHECK.
>> HEY, WHITE PEOPLE.
JUST BECAUSE YOU WATCHED "SLUM DOG MILLIONAIRE" DOES NOT MEAN
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO GET A HENNA TATTOO.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT PISSED ME OFF?
WE DON'T LOOK ALIKE.
YOU SAY DENZEL, OR-- OR MAYBE, LIKE, FABIO.
NO, WAIT, FABIO'S WHITE.
WHAT'S THE OTHER BLACK GUY THEY SAY LOOK GOOD?
THE GUY FROM THE MOVIE?
HE GOT THE EYEBROWS, THE NOSE?
>> IT'S NOT OKAY TOO DO MOTOWN AT KARAOKE.
NO ONE WANTS TO SEE IT.
NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR IT.
YOU SHOULDN'T DO IT, #CONFUSED.
#PICK ANOTHER SONG.
>> HEY, WHITE PEOPLE, WHEN YOU SAY "URBAN," WE ALL KNOW YOU
MEAN BLACK PEOPLE SO JUST SAY BLACK PEOPLE.
AND IF THAT MAKES YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE, WELL, THEN YOU
SHOULD PROBABLY MEET MORE URBAN PEOPLE.
( LAUGHTER ).
>> HEY, WHITE PEOPLE!
IF YOU FEEL LEFT OUT DURING BLACK HISTORY MONTH, JUST
REMEMBER THAT YOU PLAYED A PRETTY GIANT ROLE IN BLACK
HISTORY, TOO.
>> WHAT IS HIS NAME?
WILLIS!
FROM "DIFFERENT STROKES."
THAT'S WHO I WAS TALKING ABOUT.
TRUE STORY.
>> Jon: HEY, WHITE PEOPLE.
IT'S NOT OKAY TO AIR YOUR BLACK HISTORY MONTH P.S.A. A DAY AFTER
BLACK HISTORY MONTH IS OVER.
EITHER AIR IT ON TIME OR GIVE BLACK HEME AN EXTRA MONTH.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: THANK YOU, JON.
THANK YOU.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH SIR PATRICK STEWART.
STICK AROUND.
