'This Is a Leader': Keke Palmer Urging National Guard to 'March With Us' Lights Up Twitter

True Jackson, VP? More like True Jackson, President!


Keke Palmer, who starred in Nickelodeon's popular comedy series True Jackson, VP is captured on video calmly and powerfully talking to armed soldiers about how the community needs them to stand with them against government oppression.

It's emerged as one of the most powerful moments of the ongoing protests against systemic racism and oppression and you won't find it on the Twitter page of the celebrity at the heart of it.

KeKe Palmer was a powerful figure for young people during her time on Nickelodeon's True Jackson, VP and she has continued to impress into her young adulthood, but what she did on Tuesday (June 2) may emerge as one of the biggest and most impactful moments of her life.

She showed what a single voice of calm reason, rational commentary and an attempt to reach across the color divide, across the divide between protester and law enforcement (nay military enforcement) can do.


And you won't find it on her Twitter or Instagram pages, which may be the most powerful statement of all.

Instead, it was NBC News correspondent Gadi Schwartz who first shared the Hustlers star's moving dialogue with several national guardsman where she urged them to "march with us," even if for just a little while.

Protests have been happening on a daily basis in cities around the world since the May 25 killing of George Floyd, an innocent black man, underneath the physical weight of the police in Minneapolis.

Former officer Derek Chauvin was filmed with his knee on Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes, where Floyd pleaded for his life and repeated, "I can't breathe" until he finally fell silent and died. Still Chauvin did not move.

Charged with third-degree murder, Chauvin has been arrested. The other three officers, including two who also knelt on Floyd, have not been charged, though charges are reportedly being considered. All four were fired.

An independent autopsy determined that "asphyxiation from sustained pressure" was the cause of death. In the wake of his death, the state of Minnesota launched a civil rights investigation into the Minneapolis PD seeking to instigate widespread systemic changes.

"March with us. March beside us. Get your people. March beside us. Let the revolution be televised," Palmer pleaded with the soldiers. "March beside us and show us that you’re here for us. Let’s just do it. We start marching and you march with us. Make history with us please!"

Palmer also called out the president's divisive rhetoric as a potential danger to all. "You have to pay attention to what's going on or else we have a president that's trying to incite a race war," she said.

"The borders are closed. We can't leave," she continued. "We have people here that need your help. This is when y'all stand together with the community, with society, to stop the governmental oppression. Period."

Her words were not falling on deaf ears, either, although she was ultimately unsuccessful in her attempts to get the soldiers to commit to a full march. One of them did agree that they could walk the block with her.

He explained that they were charged with maintaining order on that street corner, protecting protesters and businesses, and that all of their military supplies were on that corner.

Another protest sought compromise, asking the solders to instead kneel with the protesters, and this the soldier and his fellow guardsmen were willing to do. Palmer could be heard in the background saying, "It's not enough." But it is a start.

It was also proof that meaningful dialogue is possible between two parties that might at first glance appear to be on opposite sides of things. It also affirms that there are many in the military and in law enforcement who absolutely support these protests and what they're fighting for.

Palmer did share a video of herself to her Instagram on Monday where she spoke about the ongoing civil unrest. "At 26, I'm looking out and witnessing a physical revolt -- and it's a revolt on a scale that I wasn't sure I'd ever see."


A day later she would be out in the middle of that revolt trying desperately to bridge a divide and create a sense of unity toward a common cause.

"Racism is what the country was built on: Slavery, systematic oppression, then voter oppression, female oppression, poor education system so you’re intentionally uninformed, financial oppression," she said in her earlier post. "Human beings can only take so much."

She went on to suggest that America needs massive reform with new legislation that serves all races and all people. "We deserve a new system because the old one was created to oppress us," she said.

Within hours of the clip going viral on social media, "Keke" was trending at number one on Twitter as fans new and old flocked to the social media platform to give her all the accolades she clearly isn't seeking in that video. That perhaps makes them all the more deserved.

Keke Palmer Begs the National Guard to March With Protesters in Viral Video: 'We Need You'

Keke Palmer is an actress, singer, and talk show host — but she’s also big on activism. On June 2, 2020, a video of Palmer at a Hollywood demonstration starting trending on Twitter. In the viral clip, the Hustlers actress can be seen among protesters against police brutality. Encountered by members of the National Guard on the street in Los Angeles, Palmer told the guardsmen, “we need you.”

Who is Keke Palmer?

Keke Palmer is a 26-year-old entertainer originally from a suburb of Chicago, Illinois. As a young actor, Palmer became known in Hollywood for her starring roles in 2006’s Akeelah and the Bee and the wildly popular Nickelodeon show, True Jackson: VP.

Later, Palmer appeared on TV series like Masters of Sex, Scream Queens, Berlin Station, and Star, and in the 2019 movie Hustlers.

Also in 2019, Palmer began co-hosting the ABC show Strahan, Sara and Keke with her fellow hosts Sara Haines and Michael Strahan. The following year, Palmer was nominated for a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show Host.

‘True Jackson’ actress participates in Black Lives Matter protests, appears in viral video

In June 2020, Palmer joined the protests over the death of Minneapolis man George Floyd. Several demonstrators filmed Palmer asking a National Guardsmen to see her perspective on police brutality and the responsibility of law enforcement. NBC News reporter Gadi Schwartz also posted the video of Palmer on Twitter, where it received thousands of likes and retweets.

In the video, the National Guard members can be seen clad head-to-toe in protective gear. Launching into a long speech about Trump’s comments on the protests, Palmer makes a case for her cause.

“You have to understand what’s going on,” she says to the National Guard members. “We have a president who’s trying to incite a race war.”

When one of them reaches his hand out to Palmer, she replies, “no, no, no.”

“Let’s just do it,” Palmer emphasizes. “We start marching, and you march with us. Please.” The protesters around the actress start applauding and encouraging the Guardsman to participate.

“March with us!” the crowd begins to chant. The Guardsman insists it’s his job to remain at his post.

Keke Palmer calls out the National Guard at a Hollywood protest

“We need you,” Palmer pleads to the Guardsman in the video. “So march with us. March beside us. You get your people. March beside us. March beside us. Let the revolution be televised.”

When that attempt is fruitless, another protester chimes in.

“Can you do me a favor? Can you take a kneel?” they ask of the Guardsman.

“Absolutely,” he responds.

“I don’t know,” Palmer says. “That ain’t enough for me.”

However, some of the other National Guardsmen kneel at this point in the video. Again, the crowd starts cheering.

Twitter responds to Keke Palmer’s protest pleas
While the viral tweet no doubt caused controversy among the Twitterverse, many users found the video powerful and uplifting. Several tweeters encouraged Palmer to run for office. (Some Twitter users recognized Palmer from her Hollywood career, while others didn’t, simply finding the video inspirational on its own merit).

As one user tweeted:

…now I am crying. The young woman showed the power of speech and non-violent activism. We need more dialog. Kudos to the guardsmen for taking a risk and doing the right thing.

From The Independent:

George Floyd protests: Keke Palmer asks National Guard soldiers to 'march with us'

‘Hustlers’ star said taking the knee was ‘not enough’

Actor Keke Palmer implored a member of the National Guard to “stand with the community” and join protests for Black Lives Matter.

In a clip shared to Twitter by NBC News reporter Gadi Schwartz, the Hustlers star is seen asking a group of soldiers to stand up for what’s right and disavow President Donald Trump’s warning that “once the looting starts, the shooting starts”.

Palmer said: “You have a president that’s talking about the second amendment as a use for people to use firearms against the people that are protesting. This is the message we’re seeing. I don’t know if you’re on social media because the news don’t tell you everything.

“You have to pay attention to what is going on. We have a president that’s trying to incite a race war. The borders are closed, we can’t leave. You have people in here that need your help, this is when we need your help. Y’all stand with the community, with society to stop the governmental oppression, period.”

With one member of the guard saying that he agreed, Palmer continued: “So march beside us. Let the revolution be televised, march beside us and show us that you’re here for us. Make history with us, please.”

As chants of “march with us” began, a different soldier told the former Nickelodeon star that he couldn’t leave the area he was controlling, prompting her to ask: “What is there to control? March with us, it will send a huge message, you and your men, protect us.”

With the officers refusing and only agreeing to take the knee in solidarity, Palmer said: “OK. I’m at a loss. I don’t know. That ain’t enough for me. That ain’t enough. March with us.”

Protests for Black Lives Matter have continued to spread across the US following the death of George Floyd, who died after a police officer knelt on his neck for nine minutes.

New 'Power Rangers Beast Morphers' Season 2 Episode Titles & Synopses Revealed

As Power Rangers Beast Morphers season two starts to rollout internationally, including on POP in the UK and Gulli in France, the episode titles and synopses for the remaining episodes of Power Rangers Beast Morphers season two yet to air on Nickelodeon USA are slowly being revealed!


Currently on its mid-season hiatus on Nickelodeon USA, the last episode of Power Rangers Beast Morphers to air on Nick was episode 8, "Secret Struggle". Nick is slated to start to air new episodes of Power Rangers Beast Morphers, including the special team-up special featuring Rangers from Mighty Morphin, Dino Charge and Dino Thunder later this year.

1009 - The Evox Snare: Grid Battleforce shuts down the Morph-X towers to lure Evox into a trap.

1010 - Intruder Alert!: The Rangers receive a strange message from outer space warning of an impending threat.

1011 - The Greater Good: The Rangers do everything they can to help their new ally return home.

1012 - Finders Keepers: A hasty decision by Zoey puts an old friend in danger.

1013 - ?: In an epic battle, the Beast Morphers team up with the Dino Thunder, Dino Charge, and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to defeat the newest member of Evox's team.

1014 - ?: Nate is reunited with his do-gooder parents, who offer him a compelling and difficult choice.

1015 - ?: Ravi and Roxy's anniversary hits a major snag when a misunderstanding gets out of control.

1016 - ?: Nate and Steel accidently swap bodies!

1017 - ?: When Zoey accidentally ruins her brother's chances for a scholarship, she’ll do anything to make it right.

1018 - ?: Devon falls victim to a bad influence, which affects his relationship with Cruise.

1019 - ?: Nate makes a horrifying discovery and must rely on the wisdom of an ally to help him work through it.

1020 - ?: Evox finally executes his master plan, and the Rangers must do everything they can to stop him, even potentially sacrifice one of their own.

1021 - Boxed In: The Pan Global Games have arrived in Coral Harbor, but Ranger duties prevents the teens from attending any of the events. (this episode has already aired on Nickelodeon)

1022 - : Evox decides to add a new villain to his team and commands his minions to find the evilest villain of all time.

Further news about the upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge Dino team-up has also been revealed, including what is thought to be the first time from the special!:


Power Rangers Dino Charge's Claire Blackwelder has revealed that she won't be returning for the Beast Morphers Dino team-up. When The Illuminerdi asked Blackwelder if she was approached to return for the crossover, she stated the following:

"I was not, no, I’ve never been approached about returning. I would love to if for no other reason than to just say hello to the crew. I love everybody there."

This definitely is not good news for Power Rangers fans, as Blackwelder’s character was a fan favorite in her season. Even it was just a voice-over role, it surely would have been enough to please fans who want Kendall appear once again. It doesn’t look like it will be the case for this season, however.

During San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) last year, it was confirmed that Austin St John would be returning to Power Rangers Beast Morphers Season 2 for the epic Dino Team-Up. It was later revealed that he’d be joined by members of the Dino Charge cast, such as Yoshi Sudarso, Brennan Mejia, James Davies, and Davi Santos. The question remained: would there be any other original Rangers returning for the team-up? How about from the Dino Thunder cast?

The original Blue Ranger, David Yost, may have shed some light on the situation. During a livestream, Yost addressed whether he would be returning for the Dino team-up. While Yost is open to the idea of returning to the series he stated that he would not be reprising his role as Billy Cranston for this season of Power Rangers.

Yost went on to say that Austin St John, who played the original Red Ranger, would be the only original actor returning to the show:

"The only person that went back for Beast Morphers is Austin St John. Nobody else. Only Austin St. John. So, that’s all."

Now, it’s possible David could be playing coy about returning, as Austin did when a fan asked him if he’d be returning to the show at a convention and he said he’d be up for it but nobody had reached out to him. All the while, the news had already broken that he’d be returning and had already shot his scenes.

"In season 2 of POWER RANGERS BEAST MORPHERS, Evox returns and he’s more powerful than ever! The Power Rangers will gain access to all new power upgrades, powerful new weapons, and epic new Megazords in order to protect the Morphin Grid and save the world!"

Beast Morphers stars Rorrie D. Travis (Devon/Red), Jacqueline Scislowski (Zoey/Yellow), Jasmeet Baduwalia (Ravi/Blue), Abraham Rodriguez (Nate), Liana Ramirez (Roxy), Colby Strong (Blaze), Cosme Flores (Ben), Kristina Ho (Betty), Kevin Copeland (Mayor Daniels), and James Gordon (Handyman), and you can check out the official description for Power Rangers Beast Morphers below.

Power Rangers Beast Morphers airs Saturdays at 8 am ET/PT on Nickelodeon USA. The series is currently on its annual mid-season hiatus, with new episodes slated to resume premiering later this year.

Nickelodeon's Declaration of Kids' Rights | June 7, 1990

In the course of history, it has become clear that all people are born with certain inalienable rights, among them life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. However, these rights haven't always applied to kids.

On Thursday 7th June 1990, as part of the opening of Nickelodeon Studios at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida, Nickelodeon, the number-one entertainment brand for kids, unveiled "Nickelodeon's Declaration of Kids' Rights", a important document, below, inspired by the USA's Bill of Rights that proclaims to the world that kids have rights, too!:

Nickelodeon's Declaration of Kids' Rights

June 7, 1990



In the course of history, it has become pretty clear that all people are born with certain inalienable rights; among them life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But these rights haven't always applied to kids.

And that stinks!

Now, 200 years after the creation of America's Bill of Rights, this declaration proclaims to the world that you have rights too:

You have the right to be seen, heard and respected as a citizen of the world.

You have the right to a world that's peaceful and an environment that's not spoiled.

You have the right to be treated with equality; regardless of race, religion, nationality, sex, personality, grades or size.

You have the right to make mistakes without someone making you feel like a jerkhead.

You have the right to be protected from harm, injustice and hatred.

You have the right to an education that prepares you to run the world when it's your turn.

You have the right to your opinions and feelings, even if others don't agree with them.

So there!

---

Nickelodeon's Declaration of Kids' Rights transforms America's traditional Bill of Rights into something potent and meaningful for kids. It uses language that doesn't patronize kids, but empowers them.

To uphold "Nickelodeon's Declaration of Kids' Rights", Nickelodeon also took the following oath:

We, the People of Nickelodeon,
in order to form
a more perfect world for kids,
promise to:

provide the best in kids' entertainment
protect kids' rights, and
promote the cause of kids everywhere!

Nickelodeon USA to Go Off-Air for 8 Minutes and 46 Seconds in Support of Justice, Equality, and Human Rights

Nickelodeon USA will today, Monday, June 1, 2020 be going off the air for 8 minutes and 46 seconds at 6pm ET, 5pm PT in support of justice, equality, and human rights. We are all part of the change #BlackLivesMatter ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻





For help on how to talk to children about racism and inequality, these books offer a good starting point.

Update (6/2): To mark #BlackOutTuesday, Nickelodeon and ViacomCBS' social media channels around the world today paused to reflect on recent events. Their focus is building community, taking action, and sparking real change in the fight against racial injustice.

ViacomCBS website also went dark as part of #BlackoutTuesday, a day being promoted by activists to observe, mourn and bring about policy change following Floyd’s death. The landing page read, “Our Business Is On Pause Today,” and explained that the media company was encouraging employees to “shift their focus from building our business to building community.”




Fans in Brazil Theorize That an Episode of 'Drake & Josh' Inspired 'iCarly'

Fans in Brazil are theorizing that an early episode of Drake & Josh may have inspired iCarly, following Nickelodeon Brazil (Brasil) starting to re-air the series!


At the end of the episode "Honor Council", a short 'web' clip plays during the credits in which Megan and Addie Singer (special guest star Emma Roberts, who played her Unfabulous character) play a trick on Josh (Josh Peck). The clip is "embedded" in a webpage with the address meganparker.com, which means that Megan was making short web videos before iCarly!

And what do Megan and Carly have in common? They're both played by the same actor, Miranda Cosgrove! In fact, in the Drake & Josh movie "Really Big Shrimp", which was supposed to serve as Drake & Josh's series finale, the "Now Playing" sign above The Premiere movie theater where Drake and Josh work says that it's playing the movie "Now She's Carly", an obvious reference to Miranda now moving on to play Carly Shay in iCarly!

And that's not all! Following the launch of iCarly, meganparker.com started to redirect to the official iCarly website, icarly.com!

It isn't that hard to imagine that the Drake & Josh 'web' clip featuring Megan and Addie as being the inspiration for iCarly, as both shows were created by Dan Schneider.

What do you think? Could the short clip at the end of Drake & Josh have been the inspiration for iCarly? Let me know in the comments below!
