>> jimmy: hi, it's jimmy. it is friday night. the end of another bad week in the united states of america. last night in minneapolis there was a protest, as you know, that turned into a riot, that turned into a scene you typically only see in a country that is at war. on monday an unarmed black man, george floyd, became the latest in a series of unarmed black men to be killed by a police officer. for the crime of trying to pass a fake $20 bill, that he may not have known ways was a fake $20 bill. for that an officer of the peace put his knee on the throat of another human being for eight minutes and ended his life. and many millions of americans are angry. especially in minneapolis. the policeman who killed george floyd, and the three other cops who stood there and did nothing to stop it were

fired. but none of them had been charged with any crime until today, which was almost certainly a result of what happened last night. and the fact that no charges were filed, for anyone who saw that video, was very hard to understand. so yesterday, late in the day, the u.s. attorney, the county attorney and the fbi held a joint press conference, which was intended to reassure everyone that justice would be done. but it didn't do that. it made it worse. and so again, protestors gathered. they threw rocks, they set the police station on fire. the police had to abandon their headquarters. they abandoned the neighborhood. stores were set on fire. there were explosions. it was scary and dangerous. some of the angry people started looting, breaking windows, stealing things, setting their own community on fire. and then unfortunately this is the loop we get stuck in. it goes from it isn't right to kill an unarmed man to, well, it

also isn't right to loot and set fires and attack the police. but the police are attacking us and killing us over and over and nothing changes. to, well, that needs to be settled by the law. to but an officer of the law just killed another unarmed man. and so on. last night there were senseless acts of violence that were brought on by a senseless act of violence. and it just keeps going in a loop. and again, the only reason we even know what happened to george floyd is because it's on video. most incidents like this are not, which is why parents of young black men have to teach their kids how to avoid being killed based on the color of their skin. so last night the anger was getting more intense. the police are gone. fire trucks can't even get to the area to stop the flames. it's a very bad situation.

and our disgusting excuse for a president, mr. tough guy, donnie bone spurs decides to make it worse. at 1:00 in the morning instead of trying to make peace donald trump makes a threat, a violent threat. he tweets, "these thugs are dishonoring the memory of george floyd and i won't let that happen. just spoke to governor tim walz and told him that the military is with him all the way. any difficulty and we will assume control. but when the looting starts, the shooting starts." thank you." "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." our president is threatening to order the military to shoot americans, specifically black americans. and then of course today, as he often does when he says something idiotic, he tried to reel that in. he claimed he was saying he didn't want that to happen. it was a warning. not a warning warning but a warning. the sad thing about how much he lies is he isn't even good at it. and i don't want to make this about donald trump because this

sense of hopelessness and frustration that black people in this country have been experiencing has been brewing for a long time. and not just under republican presidents or even white presidents. this is not on the government. it's on us. but -- and i especially want to pose this question to older people who've seen this before in this country, who've lived this nightmare of race riots already in the '60s and '70s, '80s, now. is this who you want leading us? a president who clearly and intentionally inflames violence in the middle of a riot to show how tough he is? a commander in chief who threatens to put members of our military, our national guardsmen and women in the position of having to shoot a fellow american on sight? i don't care what you are, right, left, republican, democrat. i can't imagine that there are many of us who want that. enough is enough!

we've got to vote this guy out already. and we need to work on this problem we have. this blatant double standard. because when you stand in front of the flag you put your hand on your heart and pledge allegiance "with liberty and justice for all." we don't have that for all. i mean, i have it. a lot of you have it. but it's not for all. so my wife showed me a video last night. it's a couple years old. but it really is relevant i think. and before i show it to you, i want to say that it is a shame it even had to be made. but it's very powerful and i think it's worth seeing, especially right now. >> before you call the cops, i just want you to know the first thing that i did when i woke up this morning was yell at my alarm clock. my parents were raised in the south. i have to roll tide or they'll disown me. they raised me in las vegas. that city still has my heart.

i hate spiders. i'm a vegetarian. i'm not proud about it, i've done goat yoga. i'm really not proud about that. i can tell you every single word of the nwa "straight outta compton" album. i can also sing you every word from "oklahoma." bananas are disgusting. i'm a christian. i spend almost every sunday morning teaching kids in sunday school. i am often asked if i am muslim. i'm okay with that. i'm pretty much convinced if you met my mother you'd automatically become a better person. my father is a veteran. he taught me how to say "yes,

sir" and "yes, ma'am" to everyone that i meet. i don't hate our president. i pray for him. i love basketball. and also hockey. this is my brother james. this is my brother mike. this is my brother john. and this is my brother rob. i've never been to jail. i've never owned a gun. i hate that anyone at all might possibly be afraid of me. i'd go around the world and back again if i knew that single act might make your day better. i'm a proud man. i'm a proud black man.

does any of this really matter? no. i just wanted you to get to know me better before you call the cops. >> jimmy: we'll be back with sean penn. >> dicky: abc's "jimmy kimmel live," brought to you by mercedes-benz. that's why we're expanding your range of choices. many dealers now offer optional pick-up & delivery and at-home maintenance, as well as online shopping with home delivery and special finance arrangements. so, whether you visit your local dealer or prefer the comfort of home you can count on the very highest level of service. get 0% apr financing up to 36 months on most models, and 90-day first-payment deferral on any model. with this one little nexgard chew

♪ >> jimmy: welcome back to "jimmy kimmel live." in my house. coming up in just a bit we are going to highlight a very special person, our healthcare hero of the week. next week my list of guests includes the great regina king, the incredible mark ruffalo, and the gentle giant known as shaquille o'neal. my guest tonight is an oscar-winning actor who doesn't

care about any of that. he is hard at work with his nonprofit organization core fighting the virus here in los angeles and around the country. please say hello to sean penn. hi, sean. >> hi, jimmy. >> jimmy: how are you? >> i'm doing fine, all things considered as they say, or otherwise negative. >> jimmy: i chatted with you about some of this stuff about a month ago, and you are very active when it comes to helping out. when there's a situation that needs anyone, you're there. i mean, it really is remarkable what you're doing. you've been out on the streets. tell us a little about what core has been doing and what you personally have been doing. >> well, we have for ten years had an emergency response organization. and we had started working in the last four years in the states, having started in haiti,

the bahamas as well. and so when the covid-19 hit it occurred to me that we might be able to fill some gaps. we went to the governor of california, newsom, he guided us to mayor garcetti in los angeles who had already with his l.a. fire department developed some very keen sites. the problem for them was that these sites were being manned by lafd, which was going to take them off the streets should a brush fire occur, someone need a paramedic, all the basic responses that they're highly trained to do. so they trained up our people. we recruited many from the peace corps and other groups. trained them up within core and were able to observe those sites for the city of los angeles. out of those experiences we got a grant from jack dorsey's start small fund, along with a grant from the rockefeller foundation. we were able to expand the model across the country. so we've been expanding, expanding. we've got sites in -- i've got a cheat sheet here because i've

been running around so much. >> jimmy: it looks like you've been to kinko's, too. you've got some charts behind you and everything. like governor cuomo there with the charts. >> yeah. well, you need charts at my age. it's not going to stay without them. so yeah, we're in chicago. north carolina. navajo nation, detroit, new orleans. >> jimmy: it's just such a great idea. you take people who were working with the peace corps, and you really are -- enable emergency workers to be there in case there is an emergency. it's very simple. and you would think that this would be the sort of thing we had a mechanism for, and turns out you are the mechanism for this sort of thing. >> well, we're hoping that there will be more mechanisms. the idea is in picking these particularly marginalized areas as we go out around the country, to do it very visibly. and we put out a manual through our websitar where other organizations can merge with local government and put these sites up. and just get people tested.

that's our leg. the diagnostic test. not the serology or antibody test. our test sites tell you if you're positive or negative. and the upside of that is if you're positive, you know to notify the people close to you, notify people you've been in contact with, and watch for your own health and god forbid you start to get respiratory symptoms, get yourself to a hospital. >> jimmy: so you have been tested regularly, because you are in situations where you could be exposed to the virus. and we have a video here, because i don't think a lot of people know exactly what the test for covid-19 is like, the nasal test. so let's take a look at this video, sean being tested. we may have altered that a little. i don't think the q tip goes out the nose, but it does go in the nose. how many tests of these have you had? >> that one you're watching is a nasopharyngeal test.

i've had three, four of those. i've also had the throat test. there are different tests. depend field goal you're doing a walk-up or drive-thru test site. we just opened dodger stadium, which is capable -- >> jimmy: right. >> -- tests a day. and in that case it's much better where people dot tests on themselves. we have navigators at each of the hot zones to help them get through the test, make sure they're administered properly so that their tests come back with as much efficacy as possible. that, you can march through and get a lot of people through. >> jimmy: next month you're doing something that not only is it for a great cause for core, it also sounds like a great piece of entertainment. tell us what you're doing specifically. >> dane cook called me. >> jimmy: uh-huh. >> and gave us our first covid-19 donation and really got us started in the field. and then he followed up with that with an idea of doing a

table, a streaming table reading. and this is something you'd have to go, i guess, at dane on to find out exactly the when and the where to see it. so we're doing -- we've got an amazing cast so far together. we're still the cast in a couple roles, something i'll circle back to. and we're doing a reading of "fast times at ridgemont high." introduced by cameron crowe and amy heckerling. cameron having written it in the first place. >> jimmy: yeah. >> it's not, with the exception of yours truly playing a different role from the one i played -- >> jimmy: you're not playing spicoli? >> no. >> jimmy: interesting. >> there's a fantastic actor playing spicoli. >> jimmy: oh. >> it's kind of mind-blowing cast so far. and with the expression there are no-nos here, i now am inviting you to join that cast. >> jimmy: oh, really?

>> and we'll keep quiet about the role you'll play. that's june 11, i think. >> jimmy: i'm not really an actor but i would love to be -- maybe i could be the guy who delivers the pizza to spicoli or something, something really easy. >> we'll have to talk to the boss, dane cook, on that one. i'm trying not to be the producer because i've been busy. . >> jimmy: i got you. well, listen, i'm not going to make any specific demands. i do want to mention that if you want to help sean help us, coreresponse.org is the website. slash covid19. i think you can just go to coreresponse.org and see it all there. sean, i'll be making a donation to that. i hope our viewers chip in and make a donation. and hey, thanks for always being there when people need you. you are an inspiring individual for sure. so thanks, sean penn. appreciate it. >> thank you. i just want to say, we really do need the support. in every one of these locations

we expand to, we are hiring locally, people within that community doing it, and you've got this incredible generation of hope when you go out there and you watch what these young men and women are doing every day, you know, and on these hot tarmacs for eight-hour shifts, doing covid-19 tests with their partners, the people that are tested, because that is the partnership of the citizenry in this one. >> jimmy: sean penn, everybody. we'll be back with our health care hero of the week. >> dicky: portions of "jimmy kimmel live" are brought to you by ogx. a chubby little bottle with the gold cap. salon-quality hair care at home, available online now. a tomorrow that says "bay-can." not "bay-can't." ♪ ♪ where fresh eggs rain like... opportunity. ♪ ♪ goodness is spread. ♪ ♪ and frosty's are ccino-ed.
