#JaceBoyd has been arrested and charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of Danny Buckley in the Trader Joe's parking lot.

Police let him spend another night at home before they finally arrested him this morning. Image
If they didn’t pick him up today, I was going to release his address, phone number, and next of kin the way they do us when they are searching for us.

The bias is real clear. We see you. He’d still be free if we had not sounded the alarm.
Look at how angry he looks. He’s a murderer and a coward for killing an unarmed man. Those who sympathize for him are cowards too. I said it and I stand on it.

Trump plays in Black people face everyday.

The reason he said “they are taking Black jobs” is because Trump doesn’t believe in hiring Black people in top positions.

How many Black judges did Trump appoint? 9

How many Black judges did Biden appoint? 59

How many Black cabinet appointments did Trump have? 1 Ben Carson.

How many Black cabinet appointments did Biden have? 6 including VP. Next in line for the job.
Why does this matter? If there are no Black people in these positions, then our perspectives and experiences aren’t in the room to be considered.

The president appoints about 3600 people in key government positions only 1200 require senate confirmation. These are the people who run the government. It’s why Trump and his people in Agenda 47 say they want to “purging federal bureaucracy” which means fire government employees.
I know most of us don’t really understand the depths of how government works, but those of us who do are telling you this is not a drill.

Trump doesn’t value Black people and he showed that in his first term by only appointing 1 Black person to a job in his cabinet.

He doesn’t believe leadership and judging the nation is a Black job… he’s already proven this. If you’re voting for Trump and you’re Black you just ignore facts.

We are trending toward a Black society in America that sees money as the door to freedom.

Black people built Greenwood, Power allowed it to be burned down.

If we yield our political power & ONLY gain wealth, we’ve just become rich slaves to a system that continues to harm us.
Some of us have been slaves so long, when we see free men and women we criticize what we don’t understand.

America has fooled us that money equals freedom.

Wealth without power is not freedom, it’s leverage. Anyone can navigate enough leverage.
A poor white man in America is still given more grace by law enforcement than rich Black people.

Look at entertainers & how police treat them vs just your average white citizen. Money doesn’t stop the harassment, power does.

Two things can be true.

One can be happy to see Deion Sanders advance his career. I believe he’s special & has the capacity to do something special any where he goes.

It just felt good to see him bringing all that Black power to a Black institution. His leaving has impacts.
We have to be able to have more than one perspective at the table to have an honest conversation.

First, Deion Sanders can do whatever he feels is best for him & his family.

Second, people can feel different things about how it impacts others, because it does.
An HBCU is where Coach Prime got his degree & his head coaching job.

The winningest coach in football history is from an HBCU.

HBCU’s had & STILL have value.

The question for now isn’t about Coach Prime, his decision is made.

It’s how do we carry what was started forward.

I’m going to list how many Black voters we have in different parishes around the state vs how many Black voters showed up to early vote.

E. Baton Rouge 129k - 12,520
Orleans 145k - 16,443
Caddo 73k - 6,955
Jefferson 73k - 6,428
Lafayette 37k - 2,751
Ouachita 37k - 2,928
Calcasieu 31k - 2,260
St. Landry 25k - 3,038
St. Tammany 22k - 24,09
Tangipahoa 21k - 1,541

That means for every 10 Black people you see this weekend, only 1 of them voted.
There are 942,000 registered Black voters in Louisiana. If you want change share this & let’s move them.
We rank #50 in the nation.

#48 in education
#46 in healthcare
#47 in opportunity
#50 in crime

While Mr. Call a Crackhead @SenJohnKennedy collects a government check while doing nothing to make Louisiana better.

We can force a runoff if Black voters show up in masses.

A year ago @lukemixonla called me to tell me he was running for the U.S. Senate. I asked him how would he get the Black vote. He stumbled around with his answer because he had no plan to get Black voters.
Today he dropped a ad with a fake New Orleans accent pandering to Black voters in New Orleans.

When people ask me why I ran, it’s because I’m tired of people like Luke Mixon taking my community for granted.
As it stands we have Mr. Call a Crackhead on the right showing only Black people in his ad. Now we have Luke using paid Black voices because he hasn’t actually worked to earn the Black vote.

As a Black man in America I’ve never feared my Muslim brothers and sisters.

It was young white men who hung my ancestors. It was young white men who became cops & got away w murdering us.

The biggest threat to Black liberty has always been white men.
Even the gun violence in the hood.

Who created the ghetto? Who redlined Black people into housing projects, paid us unfair wages, gave our tax dollars to their communities while starving ours?

White men did. Those are facts. If you don’t like those facts, change your ways!
Black people being killed in the grocery store for being Black, I don’t have time to be politically correct to save the feelings of white men when Black bodies are dropping in this nation everyday.

The cancer of America has always been racist white men & women. They exist.
