The Rise of Screen Time & AI Demand

What up, y'all?

Welcome back.

Welcome back.

Welcome back.

You are now

tapped in with your boy Ray Nitty on the award-winning 10170 Truth.

I got the homie, Jazz Tyler.

What's the word?

Join me, man.

What's up, Ray?

Man, what's honey, man?

Say you want small ones, hey.

What's honey, man?

How you been, Josh?

I'm good.

I'm good.

It's a lot going on.

School's starting back.

Kennedy headed to college next week.

Hey, what up, kid, kid?

Man,

what's going

on?

I remember when them kids were small, when we was using all that data on Xbox.

You're ahead of them

in the back.

I'm

telling you, it's crazy how time flies.

It is so crazy.

Man, how you feeling?

How you feel about data centers and data, Jeff?

I guess I don't understand why we have to.

So, well, from what I've seen so far, if I'm not mistaken,

The data centers that's attempting to come to Milwaukee are the same data centers that operates for ICE.

I know.

Jacobs.

So that's Jacobs is the company bidding to get our water company to get our water stuff.

But they

support

Palantir.

Exactly.

Palantir, for sure.

Now, I'm not sure if Palantir has a data center here.

I know who does is, if I'm not mistaken, Oracle, Microsoft, Potawatomi, and those are ones I know for sure that are here right now.

Now, I know Jacobs, who has ties to Palantir, who does a lot of data stuff.

They're supposed to get like a seven hundred million dollar contract

Seven hundred million dollar contract from an MMSD to monitor and operate our water system Correct

when in all actuality are they doing that or monitoring?

But they also was like, you know So in one the executive director of MMSD

Came out and said that you know, they build on communities directly, right?

Not

like individuals is what he was saying.

Let me see if I pull it up right here one second said that they build communities directly and they don't share that type of information with like personal information with

the companies that's operating it, right?

But the contradictory, and maybe I'm reading it wrong, but from what Jacobs came out and said is, you know, we don't use our client's information for, I was like, oh, I thought you didn't have it.

Hello.

I thought you didn't have it.

So how are you going to use something you don't have?

So I just maybe that's just how, you know, this was worded on the document.

But

I wanted

to do some, some, some deeper, deeper conversation.

But yes, you are correct.

Palantir has direct ice relationships.

And it dates back to 2021.

I actually said that I used to invest in Palantir on the stock market.

And when I found out what it was that they actually do, I was like, you know what?

I sold all my shares.

So I got right the heck up out of there.

But yeah, they had $30 million deal to build Immigration OS, which is a database explicitly designed to help track down undocumented people.

using data pooled across multiple federal agencies.

So, what I be thinking is like, I, strange, like, and I know they said they won't, and I'm not one to just put blind conspiracies out there, but if you use somebody's water bill, and it's funny that these companies are alleged, like,

I find it ironic that they come into sanctuary cities.

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

I mean, I don't trust people who say that the information isn't going to be out because we all know that they sell our data anyways.

Everywhere you look is, you get an email, hey, it's a lawsuit going on, get a check for about $10 because your information was sold.

But what I do have a problem with for sure is them building the communities directly.

So, and to tie this into the elections, when we talk about data centers, that is my main issue.

And I believe that that's what majority of the citizens, their issues are as well amongst other things.

And I wholeheartedly don't believe that they will not sell our data.

I'm almost positive they will, they always do.

And then my thing is like,

even if you sell in our data, why is there not a shared revenue model?

We always have these weird, stupid deals that we make with corporations, businesses, other entities.

where I feel like we always consistently get the short end of the stick and then end up having to raise taxes on families and so forth.

We know we have land

that is

going to be coveted by these larger companies that are looking to build these things.

And like, no, we doing y'all off at y'all.

Like y'all not doing us a favor because how many places actually going to let y'all come in and build?

Sometimes it feels like like we just thirsty.

Yeah, to just have some and we don't be having no pay coming back from

none whatsoever.

I

just think we need to one.

Yes, we have to figure out how we hold these corporations accountable for how they build in communities.

Did

we go through this with Skywalker with the?

Come on now.

What was it?

Come on now.

Foxconn

Foxconn.

Yeah.

And Foxconn is now Microsoft's data center.

What was supposed to be Foxconn is now Microsoft, which is if so we already

have proof that it It ain't gonna work

So but it's it didn't work for Foxconn, but it seemed like it's working for Microsoft and we gave Foxconn such a sweet deal That was strange to I was like, why do we just give these type of deals away?

Like you said, we'd be so thirsty to just have people here and

be

excited about people bringing like building here.

It's like that doesn't directly impact the state if we don't put any real structure to it.

Like, yo, we want a percentage of revenue.

And it's a strong.

It's like a takeover to me.

It's like a stronghold, like a complete takeover.

When you look at.

not even just in Milwaukee, but the citizens throughout the state.

They don't want it.

We don't want the data centers, right?

And for obvious reasons, but again, I think what needs to happen is there needs to be some type of research conducted going back, looking at the deal that Walker made with Foxconn and so on and

so on,

even Microsoft, to weigh the pros and cons.

and then make the decision based off of that, not just that alone, but the fact that, again, the citizens don't want it.

But we have to go back and check the track record if we're not paying attention to what happened before and then end up in the same situation.

And then we got to have the conversation.

Do we not want it?

Because nobody slowing down their Instagram

use.

Nobody slowing down their Netflix use.

But I think.

It's hard because the way that they have made society today is almost like you can't do anything without it.

But we can.

We can to a certain degree.

We can.

All of the

information is on.

We want things faster, though.

That's a fact.

I'm OK.

We want to hold on to all our

pictures.

No, that's a fact.

Go get that photo album.

Go

ahead and go.

That

free film for live camera.

Yeah.

Nobody want to twist that button no more to take a picture.

That's a fact.

That's a fact.

How much storage we buy on these iPhones?

That's a fact.

And they did numbers on us, the Millenniums.

Come on, man.

They did.

That's our generation for sure.

So and that be like we so easily separate the consumption conversation from the actual that is.

I could be a thousand percent wrong, but I feel like I'm right.

If people manage their data consumption, there will not be such a huge need for

data.

Or if we weren't so microwave society where we want everything right away.

You could put up a whole 15 hour show.

If you just give a couple prompts and now you don't got to do all this research, you got things doing.

What sped up the consumption was the need for people wanting things to be even faster.

Yes.

Yes.

Google wasn't fast enough.

But the

now we need a Gemini.

I'm programming us and reprogramming us not too needed is going to take more time.

It's going to take a lot of time because that's what's going to have to happen.

in order for us not to use as much data as possible.

I think also to your point, the bigger question is, why Wisconsin?

Why in the world are they so adamant about bringing it here?

I think because Scott Walker laid the groundwork to show Wisconsin is data center

friendly.

So when you already have a huge company like Foxconn who got some through and now it's Microsoft,

they won't even

it's attractive to a Microsoft competitor.

Oh, Oracle.

Oh, you know what I'm saying?

So now Oracle is building a. I didn't even know Oracle was putting the data center in present prayer or Mount Prairie.

I'm curious to know

how somebody said on

senators and throughout the

country.

I don't know how many it is right now.

I heard the number the other day, listening to CNBC.

But I know they getting ready to build more.

Like much more.

Do that mean it's time to leave the country?

I don't know what it means.

I don't know what it means to be honest with you.

But what I do know is we as humans have not.

showed zero signs of slowing down our consumption.

We've only showed signs that we want things even faster.

Don't go anywhere.

When we come back, we'll continue this conversation right here on the award-winning 10170True.

What up, y'all?

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back to the award-winning 10170 Truth.

This is the grapevine with your boy Ray Nitty-Jazz Tyler filling in women.

What's the word, right?

Holding it down, man.

The word is, are you finances low?

Are your finances low?

Is your mindset off track?

Or are you ready to get into real estate?

tune in to the journey with coach Erica every first and third Saturday from 11 a.m.

To noon on one on one seven the truth It's all about mindset money in real estate helping you take the next step toward building a better future Speaking of building a better future main We've been building this AI future and didn't even know it

didn't even know it Wasn't paying attention

All the nest does right

man all the data points that they got on us from all our search engines everything we searched YouTube Things that we look like how we think they build algorithms for us

Based off of us what we're doing

what we say it What our phones listening to yep what we think that what we think an iPhone is

That's damn near a little data center in your pocket.

I promise you You got apps just running data while you sleep Man

My was just in it all the technology is just live off grid

All I'm saying

No technology, but I think it makes it harder.

We was kind of talking about it It makes it harder to to pull away because they have In a sense forced us to a need

You know, social media, data, all of that.

People monetize off of data now.

All types of

things happening.

So they're making us addicted to it, especially the babies.

Even change how we consume music.

Yes.

Absolutely.

We used to have to go by a CD and play it.

Now you streaming and they robbed the folks out of their streaming money.

Yeah.

Facts.

So all the music you listening to when you getting excited and fired up, I hope you listening to it on cassette.

Because you using that.

You use it.

Apple music, Spotify, Amazon music.

What do you think all that music is stored?

Yes.

Yes.

Cloud don't mean in the sky.

Yeah.

Come on.

What do we think is stored?

So that's why I ask these questions.

We have yet to really address our human consumption.

And it's a separate conversation.

I'm not trying to debate with people.

I just want us to open our eyes.

Our consumption is insane.

It is.

It

is.

If you think about, actually, your phone tells you how much

screen

time you're using, you're utilizing.

So you should probably pay attention to that

every day.

All

the time.

Go and look at how much time you are utilizing on your phone in one day.

Man.

Wisconsin isn't alone in grappling with this.

More than 50 cities and countries nationwide have enacted some sort of data center moratorium on restrictions largely driven by the same water stress and electricity costs.

concerns showing up in Wisconsin.

So that's the issue.

How?

What deal are we negotiating that's not causing our citizens to have to pay these extra higher.

Light bills because.

In Milwaukee and Wisconsin.

Our energy bill has already went up.

I had the numbers here.

Let me see if I can find it.

So are these extra fees also a part of the extra fees we see on the water bills?

So, according to the research, research would say that the fees that we're seeing right now, the hike that we're seeing right now, isn't a reflection of the new infrastructure build out that we energies wants to do.

I don't know how I feel about that.

Sound like a bunch of...

So I'm

like,

I'm just saying.

They

like, let's just raise it now so they don't notice it later.

When the dad says, get here, we say,

no, the

bill is already happening.

I'm just saying.

Go ahead and

tell them what they want to hear.

I'm just saying, man.

I'm just saying.

I'm just saying we we we.

put all these numbers around, oh, these jobs, 500 jobs, 800 jobs.

Is this a deal breaker for you when it comes to elections?

Well, data centers?

No, I don't think data centers is a deal breaker for me.

I do think environmental injustice is a deal breaker for me.

And I want us to look at environmental injustice as a whole.

Yes,

absolutely.

no damn data centers because we got a lot of environmental injustice.

We could be making noise for right now.

Not for data centers that's on the way or propose data centers.

It's a lot of environmental injustice.

Toxic centers right now.

I can tell you what one is.

32nd and Center Street, Master Lock.

It's for sale right now.

Right across from the corridor.

Right?

Exactly.

Great question, LeRion.

What's more important environmental justice or black folks getting jobs?

I don't think they got to be separate

I don't think so either, but I think the even more important question is black folks keeping jobs

like straight up because as we just stated Masterlock created so many black folks jobs and due to environmental injustice and over contaminants in our neighborhood and another company getting

Blamed companies being us black developers that put 77 million dollars on center street to rebuild our community Got blamed for infecting or toxic chemicals that was spilled by masterlock Yes, and then we let masterlock shut down while black developers was getting the blame Come on Nobody showed up everybody that was mad about data centers and showed up at at midtown

I'm like, man, miss me with all that performative BS because you ain't loud about things that's right now killing people in our city.

People getting cancer.

People just randomly passing.

Like that's happening right now.

Absolutely.

And it's on our DNR website.

Y'all could go gladly take a look at and I'm not making any of it up.

Yep.

So, no, data centers ain't no deal breaker for me, but environmental injustice is.

Yep, I agree.

As someone who has autoimmune disorder, everything in the environment matters with my health, every single thing.

And it's crazy because we don't start, we don't think about these things until something happens, right?

But we need to.

When I moved away and I lived in Arizona, it wasn't until I realized how...

important it was to be from Milwaukee and live in Milwaukee based off of our water system.

A lot,

right?

When it comes to farming, when it comes to, you know, growing food, water, even just something as simple as washing your hair or using

the water

to wash your body, right?

When you start to move around the country, you then learn that a lot of other states do not have what we have here.

So to your point earlier, I can see why they would

become attracted to this state.

But we have to have somebody in place who's negotiating these deals to also, to your point, make sure that we are protecting the environmental justice as well.

I'm sorry, the environmental, the environment.

Absolutely.

It has to be mandatory.

Absolutely.

And that's why County Executive David Crowley talks about the Beyonce plant.

I don't know how I feel about the name of that.

They got to come on with a new acronym.

I get what I get it.

Yeah.

Beyonce don't play with her name like that, man.

You can't be out here calling your energy plans Beyonce.

But it's to bring your own clean

energy

plan.

Man, which I could get behind.

Bring your

own clean energy

pay for the infrastructure that is not going to raise.

Our citizens energy bill or water bill.

Right.

Then

especially.

I'm sorry, Ray, but especially when there are, we're lacking resources.

So when I say lacking resources, I mean, SDC close, there isn't as much funding for families who need the energy assistance, all of the above.

And it's inflation overall.

So if they continuously increase our bills, it's going to become even harder for us to survive,

right?

And that's something that we need.

Granted, during, you know, the winter months,

They have different types of plans if you need it.

But ultimately, I see this being a complete disaster.

Especially for families who are in the outer city, which is the inner city of Milwaukee, and they're already struggling.

That's a problem.

Then what happens is, what's next will be evictions.

It's gonna be a ripple effect.

came moving to a house if you messed up your name with WeEnergies.

They

can't turn the bill off, they can't turn the lights on.

You know how we do, we just put it in the baby now.

Baby be one year old, you be like, how you got $20,000 in WeEnergies bill?

We was what?

Nine with Belle South.

What's going on?

What's really going on?

Belle South is funny as a fool.

Don't go anywhere.

Y'all will be right back on the award-winning one-on-one, seven to truth.

What up, y'all?

Welcome back.

Welcome back.

This is a great vine with your boy Ray Nitty holding it down with my home girl.

Jazz, Tyler.

What's the word?

What's the word?

You freestyle to down it right now.

Man, we are talking about data, man.

What's the data deal?

All right.

Jazz wanted to know about the Wisconsin Foxconn deal, right?

And it was widely regarded as one of the most high profile corporate subsidy sagas in modern U.S.

history.

build as a historic revival of American manufacturing.

That's crazy, right?

By Chinese, Taiwanese company doing American manufacturing.

It went through severe downsizing and pivoting over the years.

So the original promises in 2017, July, Taiwanese tech giant Foxconn best known for assembling, guess what?

iPhones.

Come on.

announced a grand plan for Mount Pleasant in Racine County, Wisconsin.

Division, a massive 10 billion, 20 million square foot Wisconsin Valley campus to manufacture generation 10.5 liquid crystal display LCD TV panels.

Job creation promises to create up to 13,000 blue collar manufacturing jobs.

The pitch touted by President Donald Trump as the eighth wonder of the world and heavily backed Wisconsin.

Governor Scott Walker and House Speaker Paul Ryan, just remember these names.

The subsidy package state and local governments offered roughly three billion or four billion in tax incentives and infrastructure spending, including widening highways, utility expansions and land acquisition through imminent domain.

So they was taking people's homes.

And they refer to this as the eighth wonder of the world.

Well, Trump referred to it as what did he refer?

How did it as the eighth one?

Yeah, he did.

So baffled.

Like what?

Hey, man, he didn't get the deal done, I guess.

Wisconsin, you don't want the eighth wonder.

Totally.

So.

Where we at with it?

We are at the unraveling and revision almost immediately after groundbreaking in 2018 the initial vision began to crumble market shift Fox can Foxconn quickly realized that manufacturing large TV glass in the US was economically non viable due to high labor costs and the lack of a localized supply chain That was quick for you know

American, the revival of American manufacturing.

That ended in a year.

It was like, we just came, there's no reviving this in America.

The Taiwanese said, I don't understand it.

Fail targets.

Year after year, Foxconn failed to hit the job and investment benchmarks required to claim the state tax credit.

Loran said it was a bait and switch that box.

Conn had put in other cities and states, Governor Stokes, Scott Walker, not to do this deal with Foxconn.

I do remember that in headlines

and he did it anyways.

He did it anyway.

And if I'm not mistaken, they were originally in like downtown Milwaukee, right?

Or is that where they moved to?

I felt like they had...

On the outskirts first and then they came down here?

Yeah, like once everything was going down, they like had an office downtown or something like that.

But that was probably just like to show face or something like, yeah, let's put some money in Milwaukee too.

But obviously they didn't believe in the dream enough.

Where it stands today?

Where it stands today?

Well, hold on.

Let's go back.

Contract renegotiation.

2021 now Democratic Governor Tony Evers renegotiated the state's agreement.

Capital investment scaled back from 10 billion down to 672 million.

Jobs scaled back from 13,000 to 1400 jobs.

Tax credits reduced from 2.8 billion down to 80 million, making credit strictly performance based.

Where it stands today, the site at Mount Pleasant has morphed into a generic industrial park.

dominated by data center development and AI hardware.

Foxconn shift to AI hardware while Foxconn built a few large structures on the site, including a distinctive globe shaped dome and high performance computing center.

That's more data.

It never opened an LCD factory.

I remember people saying this was never about LCD factories.

I remember people saying it was never about building glass screens.

I remember that.

I remember he was pushing the whole data center coming here for jobs.

Yeah.

That was like the main... It had nothing else to do with nothing but... But jobs.

But jobs.

And it was a good look because of jobs, but... It was like, okay, who trained on these jobs?

Jobs for who?

Please tell me what he's 14,000 humans coming from.

Foxconn pivoted his operations and racing toward A.I.

Dennis Center Hardware and server assembly.

The company announced a five five hundred sixty nine million expansion.

Amid at expanding operations to supply AI server equipment backed up by backed up to 96 million and takes tax incentives in exchange for target goals and creating 1300 jobs

So again this goes back to it the whole jobs, right?

One jobs for who

because

evidently it has nothing to do with us so

Again, paying attention to whatever deals are being currently being negotiated and comparing it to that, because if that's something that they are leading with and they're going to push it through anyways, then if it's going to happen, whether we want it to or not, we need to be specific about what our demands are, right?

100%.

100%.

Microsoft takes over the land.

Here come Massa.

Here come Massa, old Bill Gates.

The most significant activity on the former Foxconn property isn't actually being led by Foxconn, but by Microsoft.

Microsoft purchased large parcels of land in Mount Pleasant originally designated for Foxconn.

Microsoft is constructing a multi-billion dollar AI data center campus on the site, creating thousands of, guess what, construction jobs and bringing substantial tax revenue to the region.

It sounds so good on it.

In the word, uh, Lenox in belly.

No, that wasn't belly.

That was, uh...

Shatters.

I want a piece of every blood clot thing.

You sell a nickel bag of data, I want 10%.

A piece of that.

Lauren said, remember, they were trying to negotiate with Foxconn to have buses to race, senior connoisseurs, so black people without driver's license could work

here.

Yep.

I remember that.

And that's what, uh...

Part of the high rail remember we were supposed to do a high rail arm system that got folks from Milwaukee Think straight to Madison.

Yeah, I'm not mistaken.

We're supposed to hit them places.

Yeah,

and guess who blocked that Walker.

Okay Yes, indeed.

Okay, so a summary of the impact y'all Y'all could use your Apple phones and check this out or androids androids use that or two

That's who you oh, you know, oh Android Microsoft I'm just saying metrics The metrics was 2017 original deal slash realized currency realized current reality So the primary output supposed to generate 10.5 LCD TV screens

The actual current reality is AI servers and data centers.

Capital investment.

Supposed to get 10 billion dollars in capital investment.

Actual reality, 717 million Foxconn plus Microsoft investments.

Jobs promised up to 13,000 when we get 1400.

I wonder how many people.

From Milwaukee actually got some of them not even Milwaukee from Wisconsin

Got some of that

got some of them 1400 jobs sales tax incentives 2.5 2.85 billion scaled down and strictly performance contingent While local taxpayers were left absorbing heavy debt loads from initial land clearing

Highway widening and infrastructure improvements.

The area has gradually transitioned into a regional tech and AI server corridor driven largely by the Microsoft campus land scale rather than the original factory vision.

I'm just saying.

I'm just saying what up, cousin Jasmine.

She said, I got all burly.

Hey, Jess.

She's about to cook and listen to y'all

cousins.

That's right, cuh.

Make sure you listen on the radio, cuh, because you don't want to use no data.

No data.

You know, they might come get you.

So don't go anywhere, y'all.

We'll be right back to the grapevine on the award-winning 10170 Truth.

What up y'all welcome back welcome back To the great vine on the award-winning one-on-one seven of truth American family insurance is a proud sponsor of the truth Since 1927 they've been committed to helping families protect what matters most With the right home and auto coverage built around your real life Because when you've worked hard to build something you want protection that works just as hard for you That peace of mind means you're free to focus on your goals your family and the dreams you're chasing

Ensure carefully, dream fearlessly with American Family Insurance, American Family Mutual Insurance Company, SI, and its operating company, 6,000 American Parkway, Madison, Wisconsin.

What's happening in Madtown?

Ever since I could remember y'all been popping that data.

We're talking about data centers, man.

We're talking about ones that are already here, Foxconn.

I think I might gotta go take a trip.

I gotta go visit one of these centers, right?

I gotta go visit one of these centers.

Ironically enough, this was about three days ago.

This just came across my Instagram.

Mayor Brandon Johnson, this accent be trying hard to slip.

Enacts the strongest data center regulations in America calls for temporary moratorium similar to what folks has been asking for here, right?

So what is this saying?

Latest executive order strengthens protection against air and noise pollution requires enhanced review of proposed data center developments and launches a comprehensive effort to modernize Chicago's.

data center regulations.

And I think that's fine.

I think that's fair, man.

We need regulations, but we got to have a real conversation and not leave out human consumption of things that drive data up and drive data usage up.

A lot of people that was.

Like super upset and rightfully so.

About data centers was arguing on Facebook.

The place that you use data.

We Netflix and chill.

Streaming.

Watching videos on YouTube, watching us right now on the truth.

We using data.

I just I just want us to think about it, man.

I just got a text message.

From the Jamaican bread.

Jen.

Says he is the lead quality control manager for the company that's building these data centers in Kenosha.

Why?

I love to have that conversation with you, Bridget.

We'd love to know what that looks like, what is being done, how do you, what is your job looks like?

We're gonna set that up.

We're gonna set that one up.

Because I think it's important.

I think it's important.

But we can't leave out the conversation about our human consumption and the everyday platforms that we use on a daily basis with

out even thinking second, having any second thoughts about using it.

If you order in on Amazon.

If you order in a Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Uber eats.

Google.

We are consuming data.

Emails.

Sending pictures, sending videos.

You making reels.

I'm just saying.

What does a healthy data center look like?

What does a healthy data center look like?

The tool.

already used everywhere or elsewhere, I should say.

A community benefit agreement, a community benefit agreement is a legally binding contract negotiated directly between a developer and the host community, securing enforceable commitments before construction even begins, not vague promises after the fact.

We need a piece of the money.

We need revenue sharing from these data centers.

You ain't going to just make money off of our data and not give us a cut back now.

And I got to give you tax breaks and an imminent domain to give give you land and take people homes and.

No, you got to kick in.

You got to come check in.

And that's how I feel we set our cities up for.

Somebody said Lena's grocery store used to have vans that would take you home.

No Ubers.

Absolutely.

I remember that.

Now it's Apple Pay.

Spark.

Everything.

Air drop.

I'm sorry, women.

We take 10,000 pictures of y'all when we go out.

For y'all to not like none of them.

Be like, you're a terrible picture taker.

But what we do, we just save it, upload it to the cloud.

What is it?

The healthy data center looks like the NAACP has already built a national CBA template specifically for data centers covering local hiring commitments, a path to 100% renewable slash zero emission power by a fixed target year and protections against wage theft.

I don't even know what that mean, protection against wage theft.

But somebody's thinking about it.

Loran says, for me, the worst case scenario is to say no to an opportunity and it goes somewhere else and works.

Then yes.

And it doesn't work.

I remember.

When they was trying to bring the meat packing plant to not Midtown, but Century City.

And they had that whole uproar about why we shouldn't bring this meat packing company.

I think it was coming from Kenosha, the Century City.

And I was supposed to bring all these jobs and you know who was promoting it?

People that don't look like the neighborhood know who was promoting not bringing it here or protesting it.

People that don't look like the neighborhood.

And now this was what, 10 years ago, Khalif, Khalif Rainey was the alter at that time.

They made so much noise that that them jobs never came.

And Century City is still vacant.

I know they packing beer in there or something.

I don't know how many jobs in there.

But it's still empty.

So I'm just saying, y'all, as we get ready to wrap this up for today, right?

Yes, we have to hold corporations, companies, establishments accountable for making sure they are healthy partners in our community.

And if we really, really, really care about data centers and the different harms that it could bring,

that we have to equally care about our consumption of the things that we consume that drive data usage up.

There is a ton of things locally right now, environmental justice, that we could be equally as loud about communities that need your support, need your help, need your voice.

Come on in outsiders.

Master Lock is open for business.

Well, they close now.

But it's tons of toxins in the community over there on 32nd and Center Street.

And we've been quiet about it.

I feel like I've been the only one saying something.

Next week, we're going to do the Master Lock story.

That's what we're going to do.

We going to do it.

We going to do it.

I'ma give y'all the CWC Master Lock story.

How we had to evict over 56 families in the middle of the winter because of TCE toxins in the soil that was left by Master Lock and Briggs and Stratton.

And then Master Lock was just allowed to shut down and move on quietly.

Don't go anywhere, y'all.

Tappy in his next with Jazz Tyler.

I know she gonna bring a lot of energy for y'all.

I had a good time.

I'm gonna plan some things out for next week.

And we're gonna get into depth in a lot of things, man.

We might preview some of that on this show.

But today, today we had an amazing lunch break conversation.

talking about data.

You know, what was going on and who's responsible for the data hikes?

Ooh, that sip of coffee was hot.

Ooh, burnt going down.

Oh, but yeah, man, once again, welcome, welcome, welcome to this amazing Friday.

If you just joining us.

Last show on the lunch break with myself and maybe Shannon.

We had Dr. Adel Corcor talking about the power of motion and movement.

And it prompted me to want to go into.

Another discussion today, but I'm going to give you all an idea of what all we're going to be talking about.

Today, some of the things we didn't finish on our lunch.

So it's a little leftovers.

You feel me?

And we're going to sip it with this wine from the grape vines that we picked.

But I want to go over the power of motion and how it impacts, how movement impacts the mind and our health.

We want to talk about the gap by the numbers.

We want to talk about what that inactivity costs medically.

We want to talk about why these gaps exist.

And it's not about willpower, y'all.

So make sure you tap in 833-212-1017.

That's the number to dial.

833-212-1017.

That's the number to dial.

Follow us on YouTube.

Bring somebody to the YouTube, which you as well, man.

Send the link out.

Tell somebody, hey, chime in to this.

Then we want to talk about real free local options.

that people could, you know, tap into, not just national talking points.

Then we want to talk about data centers.

We want to continue our conversation about data centers.

I don't think we was able to get deep into it.

You know, a couple of people felt the way.

Yeah, Robin, where you at?

Come back, man, Rob.

And educate me, please.

I'm not beyond being educated.

And if I'm wrong, I admit I'm wrong.

I'm just going off of the research that we did.

So on today's grapevine show, we got a bunch of stuff that we want to pick through, man.

We want to talk about data centers, the real numbers behind the controversy.

The jobs and tax incentive side of the argument.

We want to also talk about the proposed moratorium.

What would it actually do?

What would it actually do?

What does it look like?

So we want to talk about the case against it for balance and how it compares nationally.

Then we want to go over a few data centers that are already here.

in Wisconsin and Milwaukee.

One in Mount Pleasant.

Which used to be Foxconn.

We had that whole Foxconn deal.

I think that was from.

I think Foxconn deal came through the was that the.

Scott Walker administration that approved the Foxconn deal.

Which was then uh, you know Foxconn didn't do what they were supposed to do so I think Microsoft ended up taking that over.

Did Microsoft do what they were supposed to do?

Oh, yeah, they here.

They here and they spending big.

They spending big.

So we're gonna talk about why this specific land matters.

And we're gonna talk about the Foxconn history of it as well.

What is it gonna be costing our region?

We're gonna talk about that.

And then we're going to talk about the one actually in Milwaukee and is tribally owned by Pottawatomie.

And then for lunch, we had talked about a conversation.

I don't think you're all going to digest that.

Well, I just don't know how much we're going to digest this, right?

I need some thumbs

man because I Did some research and is showing that we are partially the reason that these data centers exist our consumption of data in general of as humans and I know it's hard for us to understand like

I want us to think about this.

We set it on a lunch break.

It's the leftovers right now, all right?

It's the leftovers.

We didn't get the lunch size.

We got the dinner size meal at lunch.

How much data did we use arguing on Facebook about data centers?

We don't take things like that into consideration.

We don't think of our own data consumption use.

Then we're going to take a deeper dive into those apps we use every day and what keeps them running.

All right.

Then.

I want us to close about what a healthy data center actually could look like.

What would it look like?

And please, if you're an expert call in.

833-212-1017.

Call in.

Share your knowledge with our Truth family.

I'm not an expert.

I'm a researcher.

Because certain things and actions prompt me to want to go a little further, dig a little deeper.

All right.

I had to go a little deeper.

Do a little more research.

I don't know if y'all want to hear.

I don't know if y'all want to hear.

And the generation that has been some of the loudest about data centers has been the largest consumers of the data today.

Follow us on YouTube Join the conversation I'm not perfect if you know how data works and data centers work Come on up call in let's talk about it But right now I got some research that I did And it was very interesting It was very interesting

I hope we can have this conversation in a very civil manner, right?

Because data centers has been a huge, huge, huge.

Conversation in not just our governor election, but all across the nation.

The conversation is about data centers.

What is it causing our our communities?

What is it?

You know, what is the the impact?

The harm the energy usage the water usage But I want to also dig deeper and have a conversation like I don't

Fault anybody.

I don't knock anybody for being anti data centers and being concerned about the environment.

I think we should.

I think we should be concerned about the environment and what corporations leave behind.

When they're parading jobs and growth and economic impact in communities.

But I want us to think about not just data centers, but the environmental neglect that has been happening in our same communities.

It's a lot of things right now we could be equally loud about that I feel is even more detrimental and causing greater environmental impact in our communities.

One of them being master lock Hmm We don't want to hear about that though everybody quiet about master lock, but was that Midtown Nobody showed up when master lock closed down and took them 10,000 jobs off of 33rd 32nd and center street Nobody protest

about them leaving toxic chemicals on Center Street.

But it's all right.

Don't go anywhere.

When we get back, we'll get right into it a little bit more on the award-winning 10170 Truth.

What up y'all welcome back welcome back.

It's your boy Ray Nitty holding it down on the grapevine on the award-winning one-on-one seven the truth Man We're gonna jump right into it man.

We had dr. Adel Corkor on the lunch break and he was talking about the importance of movement and emotions and how him

getting active helped him with his anxiety and his mental health.

So it made me want to bring us some some information.

So we wanted to talk about the power of motion.

Movement, mind and health.

So I'm going to give you all the gap by the numbers.

You know, we like to give you all the numbers.

30 percent of non Hispanic

Black adults and 31% of Hispanic adults report being physically inactive outside of work compared to 23% of white adults.

And just 20% of Asian adults, the CDC's own national numbers.

Only 39% of non-Hispanic black adults and 40% of Hispanic adults meet basic aerobic activity guidelines versus 48% of white adults.

adding strength training requirements, roughly 75% of all Americans fall short, meaning this is a national problem that hits black and brown communities the hardest.

And we be eating the craziest.

So as much as we like to make fun of the white people in their food for not being seasoned.

That's a

valid reason to make fun of them.

I've had some pretty valid seasoned white food though.

Straight up.

What's

considered white food is the real question.

Ah.

Bean casserole, corn casserole.

Green bean casserole, you mean, sir?

Get it right, please.

Green bean casserole that I actually admire, especially when they season it right.

And the corn casserole.

I actually admire when they season it right.

But.

Nevertheless.

Our food be too seasoned and then we go sit down.

We ain't moving.

We not moving because food be too seasoned.

Black women specifically report the least leisure time physically activity.

Physical activity of any group, about 38% report little to no participation compared to 23% of white women.

Man, we gotta get active.

All the spaghetti, the greens, all the Tony saturys, lorries, jerk,

I love some jerk season.

But what does that inactivity cost us?

What do it cost us medically?

And I'm trying, y'all, I'm trying to get back active.

I've been trying to get back in the gym.

I've been trying to get back in the gym.

So I just start with, like, trying to eat better.

I got a job now.

I'm on the radio from Monday through Friday.

12 to 4 then we got be here early to prep and we got to discuss after you see the excuses humans make for not being active I Just made up all kinds of excuses for inactivity and what it is costing what does it cost to me black Americans face some of the highest risk levels of any group for heart disease stroke asthma and several cancers Conditions physical activity

directly protects against.

Now that's something to think about.

As I drink this sweet coffee.

Zach, put me up on the DJ brothers.

He put me up on the you put up on it, bro.

You put me up on it.

I've had like.

Six cups.

So

now it's my fault that you're not active.

I didn't say it was your fault.

I see

what

you're doing Ray.

It's

all right.

I'm just talking about the sweet coffee that you put me up on and then my own inactivity did not work off said sweet coffee is the reason I am putting myself at risk for some of these things like heart disease stroke, asthma and several cancer.

So

No, it's not your fault I'm inactive.

It's my fault.

It's your fault that this tastes so good.

Pause.

Pause.

But as we stated, Black Americans face some of the highest risk levels of any group for heart disease, stroke, asthma, and several cancers.

Asthma.

Roughly 80% of black women in the US are affected by overweight or obesity and the black white obesity gap is wider for women 56% versus 39% Than for men That's kind of great So we got all of these things and we ain't active And we not active

Let's talk about why the gap exists.

And it's not about willpower.

It's not just because I just I can't do it.

Less than half of all Americans live within a half a mile of a park.

Dr. Addle literally was just talking about this, the access to places where people can be active at.

That access is not evenly distributed historically.

Disinvested neighborhoods disproportionately lack sidewalks, bike lanes, and recreation centers.

Research on Hispanic communities specifically found people attending free community-based exercise classes had 130% odds of positive mental well-being.

Showing the barrier is often access to safe, low-cost options.

Not motivation.

Not motivation.

Now we can talk about like so many in home.

Activities that you could do, but I think it's something about actually getting outside and being in nature, walking, jogging, you know.

It's something about that.

It feels different than just doing a hundred jumping jacks, sit ups and push ups at home on the floor.

Just go outside of your front yard and do it.

Make you feel different.

Make you feel good.

Shift work.

I just told you, I got a job now.

Multiple jobs and unsafe or under-resourced neighborhoods for outdoor activity all compound the access problem.

This is infrastructure and economics as much as it is personal choice.

Jazzy back there working.

Producer Jazz.

So, I told y'all I had a job.

When I said man radio, what about?

It's hard to you got to pick up kids that you got to Sit down, you know Yeah, do things and by the time you look up is 9 p.m tight But I got some steps in that stay fair with a What are some things called

Funnel cake had a strawberry funnel cake with ice cream in my hand.

I was acting real different at State Fair.

Not even a funnel cake kind of guy or fresh strawberries.

But I had all that.

But we're going to talk about some free local options because we want to make sure people know what is available to them, right?

Milwaukee Recreation Runs Free Community Wellness Programming year round across the city.

walking groups, organized group workouts, high intensity sessions, low intensity stretching classes available in every corner of the city, not just the affluent neighborhoods.

So make sure you check out Milwaukee Recreation.

They have a whole, they have a whole program, a whole book of programs for the summer.

We have Blake on the line.

Blake, how you doing?

Talk to me.

Educate me.

What's happening, man?

I'm doing great, man.

I just want to know what the odds is on my age period for what you're saying, because at least every day, I ride my bike through the neighborhood from, like, 35th and center all the way to, like, left and leading back, but, like, do it in the roundabout from the lead to Wisconsin and Wisconsin to, like, you know, do it in the square unit.
