00:06
It is music now.
00:08
We're all. Welcome back to Lincoln Bio.
00:11
This is Jenny and I'm Alejandro and we have a super litty
00:16
show I think for you.
00:17
We sure do. We're going to be talking about calling the
00:21
cops on Cicadas. Not even the bugs are safe overtime pay
00:27
could affect you in a good way or bad.
00:35
And we are talking to Arabic Latina queen AA R and we
00:42
also have talk about saving a baby's life.
00:45
Mhm And how tiktok hacked into a buzzfeed journalist account is tiktok
00:50
banned? Is this privacy concern real?
00:53
Let's break it down.
00:55
That's me breaking it down.
00:56
All right, let's get to our first story.
00:58
Thank you. So guess what insect is invited to the Carne
01:06
Asada but not really invited because they hella annoying.
01:11
So just like your Theos on Saturday night,
01:13
people are calling the cops on Cicadas for being too fucking loud
01:19
What? So right now Chino Cicadas are waking up in
01:22
the Midwest and Southern States in a rev event called Double Brood
01:25
Did I say that?
01:26
Right? Double Brood,
01:28
I guess brother go on because I've never seen a Cicada.
01:32
I've heard one you've heard,
01:33
I've heard them. So they're loud,
01:36
they're fucking loud. Yeah,
01:38
it sounds like, I don't know how to even make it
01:40
sound but I don't know,
01:47
I think, I don't know.
01:48
Whatever keep going is there.
01:51
Ok? Thank you.
01:51
All right. So in South Carolina the insects are so loud
01:55
that residents have been calling the police complaining about a noise in
01:58
the air. That sounds like a siren or a wine or
02:01
or I'll do it again.
02:06
Calling the cops. It's like they,
02:08
they all Cicadas be like us when we have parties.
02:20
Let's see. But it got so out of hand that the
02:22
sheriff's office had to post a message on Facebook saying that the
02:25
loud noise is just male Cicadas singing to attract females for their
02:29
short lives of mating.
02:31
That's literally our, that's it.
02:41
Yes. Oh my God.
02:43
That's funny. They'd be calling the Cubs.
02:46
Well, I guess if c ever make it here to
02:48
the, you know,
02:49
west coast. So Cal California L A,
02:52
we'll have a little sing off the males,
02:55
the machos of the Latino community versus the male Cicadas.
03:00
Banda, Cicadas, Cicada.
03:02
There we go. That's a new album dropping soon.
03:04
Well, let's move on,
03:05
brother. Apparently you might be getting a raise soon,
03:13
not you. But millions of millions of salaried Americans are now
03:19
eligible to receive overtime pay again.
03:22
This might benefit you.
03:23
So just listen up giving me a raise on.
03:27
Yeah, I don,
03:27
I don't call the shots here,
03:29
but this is on tape,
03:33
you know who's watching.
03:34
So let us know anyways.
03:36
So, starting in July,
03:37
if you earn up to $43,000 a year or about 850 a
03:41
week, you might be eligible to receive overtime.
03:45
In January, it will increase to $58,000 a year.
03:48
Previously, the limit was over $35,000 a year.
03:52
You following me here,
03:54
I'm giving you a raise on the show,
03:56
but I guess not.
03:56
But hey, I don't call the shots.
03:59
Trust me. Restaurants and construction companies in particular are worried that
04:05
the rule may lead them to shut down or raise prices.
04:08
They claim that the Department of Labor created a one size fits
04:11
all rule based on national income data rather than regional data.
04:17
And that, that kind of makes sense.
04:18
I mean, because every state and area,
04:21
yeah, exactly the cost of living to,
04:25
but this is going to change this proportionately big word
04:28
sorry. And it's gonna impact restaurant owners in the
04:32
south and the Midwest.
04:34
This regulation will impact millions of us workers and over 1 million
04:38
of those are people of color.
04:41
In the first year.
04:42
The financial impact is estimated to be over 1.5 billion in earnings
04:47
for workers. The rule however,
04:49
is expected to be challenged in court.
04:52
So the good news is more money in our pocket.
04:54
But the bad news is that some smaller businesses are gonna feel
04:58
this pain. It's a complicated issue for sure.
05:02
Yeah. It's just,
05:03
I feel like it's like,
05:04
like to do it everywhere.
05:06
It's kind of hard because like you said,
05:07
the cost of living somewhere is different from somewhere else.
05:10
You know, to see if your job qualifies.
05:13
Check out the Department of Labor's website.
05:15
You might get paid a Taco Bell manager literally saved a baby's
05:23
life. So yesterday,
05:25
a Taco Bell manager used chest compressions to bring back an 11
05:30
month baby like in the drive through.
05:33
You know what if that's not living mass?
05:35
And I don't know what is.
05:36
Yes, I'm sorry.
05:37
The Taco Bell manager saw the mother in a panic in the
05:41
drive through trying to save her baby,
05:43
went outside and she helped the mom with the baby and did
05:47
the chest compressions and,
05:49
and it brought the baby back.
05:50
He literally got baja blasted back to life and the baby's fine
05:55
The baby's fine.
05:56
We're only joking about it because we're happy that the baby is
05:59
doing great. That manager and so many other employees like her
06:01
needto raised because they're out here saving lives and also making some
06:05
banging five layer burritos.
06:06
Honestly, those are buses and the cha and the chapa and
06:10
don't fucking at me.
06:11
I know Taco Bell is not real Mexican food,
06:13
but it's still fucking bombs.
06:17
Is tiktok over like over over tiktok has nine months to sell
06:22
or else it's not allowed in the United States.
06:24
But why do they have to sell?
06:25
Well, one of the reasons is privacy concerns.
06:27
And today we actually have Emily Baker White,
06:31
a tech reporter for Forbes who has a very interesting relationship with
06:35
Bytedance, the parent company of tiktok.
06:37
Oh, wow. Mhm.
06:39
Well, Emily, hey,
06:41
it's great to be here.
06:42
Thank you so much.
06:43
So, we'll, we'll just jump into it.
06:46
so Emily,
06:46
how do you feel like,
06:47
what was your experience with Bytedance?
06:50
So I've been reporting on Tik Tok and Bytedance for several years
06:54
now and I ended up reporting a big leak in 2022 that
06:58
showed that lots of people in China had access to us
07:02
user data. So things like our email addresses,
07:05
our private messages, our private videos,
07:07
etcetera were accessible in China.
07:09
And that mattered because in China,
07:12
there isn't due process and the government can just come and ask
07:15
any employee to turn over all the data and they have to
07:18
do it right. There's no way that they can meaningfully challenge
07:22
that. And so the US government was concerned that the Chinese
07:26
government could be using Tik Tok to capture data with that maps
07:30
I wrote this big story.
07:31
The company got really anxious about it and a number of
07:35
employees, some of whom were in China tried to figure out
07:39
who had leaked the information to me.
07:40
And in doing that,
07:42
they use the Tik Tok app to surveil me to try to
07:46
see where I was physically and then to try to compare that
07:49
information with information about where tiktok and BYTE dance employees were physically
07:54
And what they were trying to,
07:55
to do is figure out am I in the same coffee shop
07:57
at the same time as a bite dance employee or a tiktok
08:00
employee? Are we in the same public park?
08:03
Are we in the same library?
08:05
Right? Because that might be an indication that those people were
08:07
talking to me. And so that caused a huge
08:13
problem for the company when it came out.
08:14
I heard about it from a source and was able to
08:17
corroborate it and publish it.
08:18
And the company later acknowledged that,
08:20
yeah, this happened.
08:21
they fired the people involved but it was a really bad
08:24
look because they, they had been surveilling me in part from
08:27
China while they were assuring everyone that there was no risk that
08:30
their data was accessible in China.
08:33
And so how did I feel when the bill went into
08:36
effect? I felt really nervous and anxious,
08:41
generally speaking because we're in uncharted territory here.
08:45
The US has never banned an app before.
08:47
And Tik Tok and Bytedance have said they're going to challenge the
08:50
constitutionality of the bill that would require Bytedance to sell or that
08:54
could result in a ban on tiktok.
08:56
And so we're about to be in uncharted legal territory.
08:59
This is gonna be a big case.
09:00
And an unpredictable case and it's gonna would be a really
09:04
important one to watch most.
09:05
Definitely. So, would you say this is what the US
09:07
is afraid of? Like,
09:09
do you think that's why they're banning it or?
09:11
It's definitely one of the things they're afraid of?
09:13
So, there are two major concerns that the US government has
09:16
expressed about tiktok. One of them is data harvesting and frankly
09:19
they're probably not that worried about like my general location information
09:24
that's not that sensitive,
09:25
but the general location information of people who are deployed,
09:29
right? They're worried about that.
09:30
You could also think about like Chinese dissidents,
09:32
people who have stood up to this government before,
09:35
could be a sort of additional interest to the government and thus
09:38
could be an additional risk here.
09:41
The Chinese government also they collect a lot of data,
09:43
generally speaking. And so they,
09:45
it it's possible that they and other governments are sort of hoovering
09:49
up all of this data to think what might they want to
09:51
do with it someday.
09:52
And that was expressed as a risk too.
09:53
But the sort of really important other bucket here is the idea
09:58
that the Chinese government could control what we see on tiktok.
10:02
And I know that that's a concern for a lot of lawmakers
10:06
too. And there,
10:08
there was some research that was put out suggesting the messages on
10:12
tiktok skewed much more pro Palestine than the messages on other platforms
10:16
And some people use that to say,
10:18
oh, that means that the Chinese government is interfering in what's
10:21
on tiktok. I'm not sure that's what that means.
10:24
There are a lot of young people on tiktok who have
10:27
strong feelings about Israel and Palestine and I,
10:30
I think it may just be those young people expressing their opinions
10:33
and there are different sort of constituencies on every app,
10:36
right. So some lawmakers were really using that as a sign
10:40
I'm not sure I would use that as a sign personally
10:43
But the the concern still exists that if there are people
10:47
in China who are working for this company,
10:49
just doing their jobs,
10:50
you know, not doing anything nefarious,
10:52
the government could show up at their,
10:54
at their door one day and say,
10:55
yeah, you're going to have to make this tweet to the
10:57
algorithm and if that happened,
10:58
we wouldn't necessarily know about it.
11:00
So as we know,
11:01
we have Tik Tok has nine months to you know,
11:05
but why do you think they,
11:06
they're not going down to fight?
11:08
It sounds like why do you think they won't settle by tiktok
11:12
Yeah. So there are a couple of reasons.
11:14
One reason is that the Chinese government actually gets a say in
11:16
whether by dance is allowed to sell.
11:18
So when Trump tried to ban tiktok several years back,
11:23
he also was trying to force a sale of the app
11:26
And when that happened,
11:27
there were meaningful sale negotiations.
11:28
And at the last minute,
11:30
the Chinese government changed their export rules and said that recommendations,
11:34
algorithms are a sensitive type of asset and that you need to
11:38
get a license before you can sell them.
11:39
And the sort of writing on the wall was,
11:41
yeah, and we're not going to give you a license.
11:43
So it's possible that by dance could get such a license.
11:46
It does not seem likely the Chinese government has said that it
11:48
fully opposes by dance divesting of this asset and by dance itself
11:53
it said it doesn't want to sell,
11:54
it wants to go to court.
11:55
It says this law is unconstitutional.
11:56
We should, can be forced to sell and think about if
12:00
if Google or Meta were forced to sell their core tech
12:06
by a government, they go to the government and say,
12:09
I don't think so too.
12:10
So I think we've got two major things going on here.
12:14
We've got a company that doesn't want to sell its core tech
12:16
and I sort of can't blame them.
12:18
And then we've also got the fact that the Chinese government could
12:20
forcibly stop them. Well,
12:23
thank you so much for your time.
12:25
This has all been wild.
12:26
I mean, I have tiktok on my phone.
12:28
Do you still have tiktok on your phone?
12:30
I do not have tiktok on my personal phone anymore.
12:33
I do have a phone through which I can access to.
12:36
Ah, ok. So you're still on the app somehow but
12:38
not to your personal device.
12:42
Well, thank you so much,
12:43
Emily, we really appreciate you being on the show and,
12:46
and telling us, you know,
12:47
exactly what happened or what's going on with tiktok.
12:51
And yeah, I mean,
12:52
where can people find you and keep up with all this tech
12:55
news and updates? I'm on most of the social platforms.
12:58
I'm reluctantly still on the app that was formerly known as Twitter
13:02
but I'm also on Blue Sky.
13:03
I'm on threads. I'm Check Master on you can find my
13:06
author page on Forbes.
13:09
That lists my email address.
13:10
I'm pretty easy to find,
13:11
hey, if you know interesting things about tiktok or byte dance
13:14
I want to hear from you.
13:15
So definitely if,
13:18
if you Google me,
13:18
you can get ways to contact me and please do.
13:20
I'd love to hear from you.
13:21
There you go. Thanks so much for your time and
13:24
we'll be in touch.
13:25
Yeah, we'll be here.
13:26
Thank you so much.
13:27
Take care Emily. Have you seen what is happening at colleges
13:34
across the country? Yeah.
13:35
So at tons of schools including Columbia University,
13:39
University of Texas US CUCL A and like a lot more,
13:43
there has been mass protests against the war in Israel and arrests
13:47
have been happening nationwide.
13:48
So over 500 students and protesters have been arrested as of this
13:53
morning, the speaker of the house,
13:55
Mike Johnson is actually threatening to call the National Guard in if
13:59
the protesters do not disperse Mike Johnson.
14:03
So do you,
14:04
do you know where,
14:05
what school this is at?
14:06
Yes. So both of these images were taken at Columbia University
14:10
The President of Columbia University testified against the safety of Jewish
14:14
students on campus claiming anti Semitism.
14:16
But the protesters claim that they are protesting the genocide,
14:19
not the Jewish people.
14:21
Most of the students have been charged with trespassing and disorderly conduct
14:26
We actually came across a viral video of a powerful parent
14:30
joining their student at us c in solidarity with the free Palestine
14:34
movement. Thank you so much for joining us today.
14:37
Lazaro. No, thanks to you.
14:40
Thank you for the invitation.
14:41
Of course. So we wanted to ask why were you there
14:43
yesterday? I am a supporter of Palestine and I have
14:48
a daughter on the on the campus at US C and
14:53
I learned that they are gonna be doing something protesting against
14:56
what's happening in Palestine and also in support of the Columbus
15:01
students. So as a father,
15:04
I had to be there to support not only my
15:08
daughter to support all the students because this generation is a generation
15:14
of change. They have the blessing that to have the social
15:18
media things that when I was a student,
15:22
I didn't have, I had to learn everything from the
15:25
newspaper or the TV.
15:29
And was my, my decision to believe whatever they were saying
15:33
was true or not.
15:34
But now, the students have the social media and what's
15:39
my responsibility to be there as a father?
15:41
Are you upset about the US C commencement being canceled?
15:45
We heard the news that it was canceled.
15:48
It's, it's a shame but whatever they are
15:52
gonna do to stop the,
15:54
the people speak up about what's happening in Palestine and also
15:58
the races because this is racist races on a bigger scale to
16:04
cancel the the speech of the Muslim girl.
16:08
It's unbelievable. I learned that it is the first time that
16:11
that happened. And but that's gonna create more awareness on
16:15
the students that they have to prepare themselves better.
16:19
They have to become leaders of our society.
16:22
I know all the things that they are doing bad,
16:25
the people that are controlling the universities,
16:28
all the things is going to be for the good of the
16:30
students because the students are realizing where they are and they have
16:34
to get they have to prepare themselves better for the future.
16:38
And I know that you sent us some videos that were looking
16:41
pretty violent and I know that the college students are going through
16:44
a lot. What would your message be for the parents that
16:47
are worried about those kids or their kids that are being a
16:50
part of these protests?
16:52
My message will be not to be afraid because all the propaganda
16:55
that they are using is to make us afraid to be afraid
16:58
We don't have to be afraid as a parent.
17:01
I know I have the right to be in any campus that
17:04
universities in California, a free place to go.
17:08
Anybody can go there and we have the right to speak up
17:12
and we have the right to a free speech and we don't
17:15
have to be afraid because what we are doing is something for
17:18
humanity. We are not doing anything violent,
17:21
we are not doing anything wrong.
17:22
So basically, my message to our parents is to support
17:26
their kids and also to start with what they stand.
17:29
And as a parents,
17:30
we have the responsibility to support them.
17:33
Thank you so much for your powerful message and words that you've
17:37
been sharing with us.
17:38
Thank you. One more thing please to the students
17:41
to all the students over there humanity,
17:45
humanity agree on one thing that what's happening in Palestine is a
17:50
genocide and always we have to be standing against genocide.
17:55
Doesn't matter where this is not a matter of any
17:59
kind of religion, political views.
18:01
No, this is a matter of humanity.
18:04
We have to teach our kids that to killing kids is not
18:07
right. Genocide is not right.
18:10
We have to love each other.
18:11
We have to protect each other.
18:13
And that's my main message.
18:14
Please. Students keep on going because we are following you.
18:18
You are the new force of this gene,
18:20
the new generation, your generation is that one that is gonna
18:24
change the world and I believe,
18:26
and I have the hope and I am sure that many changes
18:30
are gonna come to the all the universities after these events
18:34
because police never has to go inside a university unless there is
18:39
a major crime. Police doesn't have to go doesn't have to
18:43
be involved on, on the students.
18:45
Campus is the house or the students and the students have to
18:48
be protected by the universities.
18:51
Thank you so much.
18:53
Blessed Palestine bless the world peace for everybody.
18:56
Thank you, Lazaro.
18:57
Thank you so much.
19:02
Oh, does your mom say that she does?
19:05
And it's funny because the word is actually Arabic.
19:08
Really? What the heck?
19:10
So, oka is actually an evolution of an Arabic phrase that
19:13
translates to God willing.
19:14
Ah, Allah. 00,
19:19
what? Allah. Yeah.
19:21
Exactly. Mind blown.
19:24
It's not just the language though.
19:25
Tacos. El Pastor actually come from Lebanon as well.
19:29
But the cultural ties go so much more deeper than that.
19:33
The Moors actually colonized Spain.
19:35
Oh, so they colonized Spain and before Spain colonized me.
19:40
Exactly. And so then they were already kind of,
19:43
you know, they had their little mix going on and they
19:44
brought it over to Mexico,
19:45
for example, there's like other words that we see this influence
19:48
in, right? We see Ace Oil Azucar.
19:54
I thought that was Celia Cruz.
19:56
I'm just kidding. She,
20:00
she coined it derived from an Arabic word Alon.
20:07
OK. Yeah, they have all those words have Arabic origins
20:12
Is that why I'm attracted to Arabics?
20:14
I'm just kidding. That might just be,
20:16
yeah, I mean,
20:17
your type is a whole another situation.
20:19
I mean, who knows?
20:21
Let's find out. I mean,
20:22
there's a science there.
20:23
Yeah, maybe so.
20:24
We found the perfect person to break down this culture fusion.
20:27
Let's welcome our Arabic Latina queen Aisha Ra aha.
20:33
So we wanted to ask,
20:35
what was it like growing up as a kid who was mixed
20:39
both Latina and Arabic.
20:42
How was that? Definitely chaotic being a mixed kid is something
20:46
that's more normalized now.
20:48
But definitely growing up,
20:49
I was the only Latino Arab that I knew aside from other
20:52
celebrities. That's cool though.
20:55
I love that. I love that mix.
20:57
I mean a little personal but like I,
21:01
I don't know why I'm really attracted to Arabic men.
21:04
I'm like, that's my thing.
21:06
I want to have BB king girl.
21:08
I hear this from a lot of Latinas and I say the
21:11
same thing to all of them be care why,
21:13
why? What's the red flag Arab men are just as toxic
21:16
as Latinos? OK.
21:18
Do you have a brother?
21:19
I'm just kidding. I'm joking.
21:22
No, I actually I have three sisters.
21:23
Sorry for her. OK.
21:29
We'll get back into it girl.
21:31
So who are some celebs that are mixed?
21:34
So more commonly known is definitely Shakira.
21:36
She's and Lebanese Salma Hayek,
21:40
Jaime Camil and Peso Puma,
21:42
whose real name is actually Hassan Hassan.
21:47
And speaking of you said Peso Puma.
21:48
So that makes me think parties de Madre,
21:51
which side part is harder.
21:53
That's a really good question because for my mix specifically,
21:57
we all know Mexicans know how to party.
21:59
But Lebanese in the Middle East are also known as the Partiers
22:04
So I would say for my mix specifically,
22:07
it's a little bit harder,
22:09
maybe with different countries in Latin America or the Middle East,
22:12
it would be a little easier.
22:13
But both of my countries are known as the party countries.
22:17
And speaking of parties,
22:19
the food also, right?
22:21
What things I guess maybe notice like food wise or even
22:25
just language wise that like people don't notice that they're in both
22:29
cultures or like how similar they are like a dish.
22:32
Like again, the tacos Ara a pastor is the first one
22:34
that comes to mind.
22:35
But yeah, actually Tacos Del pastor was brought over by the
22:39
Lebanese when a large flux of Lebanese immigrants came over to Latin
22:42
America. They originally used sheep like lamb meat for it.
22:48
But then the Mexicans changed it to pork meat.
22:50
But that's why it's called the el pastor because this name pastor
22:53
comes for like the name of the pastors that would raise the
22:58
sheep and things like this.
23:00
And I think there's no denying that things like PICO de Gallo
23:03
and Tabula, the tastes are different.
23:06
The setup and the ingredients that are used is very similar as
23:10
well. Wait, what was the dish you said PICO de
23:12
gallo? What was the other one?
23:14
Bu Oh Yeah. OK.
23:17
I saw your post and it was basically referring to how both
23:22
cultures you get it from both cultures about having kids and like
23:25
the pressure to have kids.
23:26
Can you explain more about that?
23:28
Yeah, absolutely. I think it's common in both Latin and
23:32
in out of culture for you to get young,
23:35
to get married, to have babies.
23:38
And I obviously,
23:40
I'm feeling that pressure as well,
23:41
even though I'm young and in my twenties.
23:43
But I would say the biggest issue that I come across is
23:45
someone accepting me fully as I am as we know in
23:49
Latin culture. and the same exists in,
23:52
out of culture as well.
23:53
Like racial purity is a big thing.
23:55
So oftentimes when I get recommended or if I find somebody that
24:00
I'm interested in, usually their families are a little bit hesitant
24:04
like, oh, she's half Mexican.
24:06
We're not interested in that or the same thing on my Latino
24:10
side. If I find someone who's a Latino partner,
24:12
it's the kind of the same thing.
24:14
Wow, that's interesting.
24:17
That's still a thing in 2024.
24:19
Which side is putting more pressure on you to have the kids
24:21
like ASAP, is it like Mexican side or Arabic side?
24:24
You know, that's a really good question because I feel like
24:26
the pressure more so comes from my communities than it does my
24:30
families individualistically because my mother already broke so many rules marrying a
24:35
Mexican man. Like she was supposed to have an arranged marriage
24:38
two different times. She didn't want them,
24:41
you know. And then all of a sudden she brings this
24:44
Mexican guy around and was shunned from the community,
24:46
was shunned from family,
24:48
you know. So I think for me,
24:51
I was given different perspectives from both of my individual families that
24:56
that the communities,
24:57
people who come from one race,
24:59
one ethnicity, they're not as familiar with.
25:02
So my parents,
25:03
they always tell me the most important thing is to find someone
25:05
who respects you who loves you for who you are.
25:08
All of you, the Mexican side,
25:09
the out of side,
25:11
you know, everything in between.
25:13
So I think that's,
25:14
that's really my experience,
25:16
I can't say for anybody else's.
25:18
But the pressure definitely comes from the individual communities,
25:22
but people don't even know what's going on,
25:24
but they always have something to say.
25:25
Yeah, but anyhoo,
25:29
thank you so much Asia.
25:31
We wanted to ask how can people find you on social media
25:34
Yeah, absolutely.
25:35
I'm la underscore Latina underscore Arabia.
25:40
So that's La Latina Arabia,
25:42
Aisha Maria range on all social media platforms.
25:45
And I'm excited to do more content about what it's like being
25:49
a mixed woman for Arab heritage month.
25:51
But also for Cinco de Mayo and all of the future things
25:54
coming up. Awesome.
25:56
Awesome. Well, thank you so much for your time and
25:58
we'll see you around.
25:59
Yeah, absolutely. Thank you guys so much for having me
26:02
much is Gracia Shukran and Jazil and hopefully we can do this
26:05
again sometime. Definitely,
26:07
we love that. Yo,
26:13

26:14
We have the one and only called the Seattle in the building
26:22

26:25

26:26
Welcome, bro. So you're blending Mexican music,
26:30
like traditional Mexican music with alternative corridos.
26:33

26:34

26:36
Well, I'm sorry when I have like 16 years.
26:39

26:57

27:12

27:16

29:32
like the era we're in,

29:36
that their culture is like again and their upbringing,
29:39
