Speaker 4: Jeff Jonson has three things you need to know.
Speaker 6: What up?
Speaker 2: Jeff?
Speaker 7: Man?
Speaker 4: What a Rick? Good morning? Everybody. Good to be with you.
Speaker 4: I feeling man, We feel good man. Happy to have
Speaker 4: you having Monday, big dog. Thank you man.
Speaker 7: So listen, There's a couple of things that I've been
Speaker 7: thinking about this weekend, man, and context is absolutely everything.
Speaker 7: The first thing is this this Nolan Wells case and
Speaker 7: the fact that there was an arrest made but the
Speaker 7: arrest was about the judge who's one of the mothers
Speaker 7: of the of the of of one of the people
Speaker 7: that was with him, and no arrest anywhere else is
Speaker 7: just irritating as hell. But it made me think, Rick, Like,
Speaker 7: I had a conversation with another brother that's doing some
Speaker 7: work around the case, and he was saying that there
Speaker 7: are so many people that are in that community that
Speaker 7: haven't really been aggressively vocal, and I was like, man,
Speaker 7: do you realize, like Jackson County, Mississippi is Jackson County, Mississippi,
Speaker 7: And I don't think a lot of people that haven't
Speaker 7: traveled outside of cities in the South understand what the
Speaker 7: South still looks like. And when you have a parent
Speaker 7: of one of the young men that was with Nolan,
Speaker 7: Uh is a judge, uh knows the county sheriff, knows
Speaker 7: other people in the city like this is still not
Speaker 7: safe for a lot of people. And it just reminds
Speaker 7: me Rick, as we talk about activism and mobilization, that
Speaker 7: sometimes we just don't realize that America hasn't changed that
Speaker 7: much in certain parts of the country, and it's still
Speaker 7: dangerous for people and life is still made difficult for them.
Speaker 7: I'll never forget going to uh, Mississippi. One of my
Speaker 7: my my dad's my dad's wife's parents lived in a
Speaker 7: small part of Mississippi and we had gone down to
Speaker 7: visit them, and the store owner where we went called
Speaker 7: my mother my stepmother's father a boy, and I was pissed,
Speaker 7: and I'm looking at my dad and I'm wondering, why
Speaker 7: is he not saying anything? And when we leave, I
Speaker 7: asked him, Dad, why didn't you say anything, Like I've
Speaker 7: been places where I've seen you check people for that,
Speaker 7: and he was like, Jeff, we don't live here. And
Speaker 7: when we leave, he still got to live here and
Speaker 7: you don't understand what happens here. And I think, Rick,
Speaker 7: we're still in that place, whether we realize it or not.
Speaker 7: And so I hope that we continue to understand too,
Speaker 7: this whole notion of shared destiny, and that one of
Speaker 7: the reasons why we have to stand with each other
Speaker 7: and fight with each other, why we need to support
Speaker 7: this family, why we need to support this community, is
Speaker 7: because there are still places where this kind of thing happens.
Speaker 7: And if Attorney Crump doesn't come in or somebody else
Speaker 7: doesn't come in, this gets swept under the rug because
Speaker 7: that's still how they do things, yep. And so I
Speaker 7: hope we will realize that, and that's part of the
Speaker 7: reason we got to stand with each other. It really
Speaker 7: is connected to Rick, to this whole thing and argument.
Speaker 7: I hear about some of these folks I'm not gonna
Speaker 7: name names talking about they.
Speaker 4: Not African and they don't come from Africa, and.
Speaker 7: A number has just been done on us, Rick, where
Speaker 7: they are African Americans that don't understand much about Africa.
Speaker 7: We got Africans that come and they've been told that
Speaker 7: African Americans are lazy and this, that, and the third,
Speaker 7: and we still don't get the fact that every single
Speaker 7: thing about white supremacy is how do we keep these
Speaker 7: people separated? How do we make people think that African
Speaker 7: Americans are not Africans, that Africa continental Africans, and our
Speaker 7: Caribbean and West Indian brothers and sisters are not us, y'all.
Speaker 7: Until we realize that we got shared destiny, regardless of
Speaker 7: the difference, and how we've come up, regardless of the
Speaker 7: difference of our experience, is where we've lived in any
Speaker 7: part of the world, Until we understand that chattel slavery
Speaker 7: did to us, what colonialism did to our brothers and
Speaker 7: sisters on the continent and diasporically, and until we realize
Speaker 7: that they are keep trying to find every way possible
Speaker 7: to divide us, We're never going to have the power
Speaker 7: that we need to have. And So just just some
Speaker 7: things I thought about, Rick, some things that are on
Speaker 7: my mind as what I'm hearing and what I'm seeing,
Speaker 7: And I hope that many of us will just be
Speaker 7: opened and ready to connect with each other.
Speaker 2: Man, Hey, Jeff, appreciate that.
Speaker 4: Man a good commentary this morning. Let everybody know how
Speaker 4: you can be reached, y'all.
Speaker 7: Hear me a jaft nation on. I g love y'all,
