Jackson Jambalaya

we need to find him and get him into mainstream...

Someone needs to introduce this guy to Chokwe and the Stokes duo.

I think I am going to pass on seeing the video. Moving on.....

He is a write in on my ballot.

this guy doesn't know what he's talking about.

Well, I believe he has a point and puts it out there very well...just saying...

He is very wise. Those that do not wish to view must enjoy remaining ignorant.

In this particular video he says what a lot of people think.

Yeah...15 years ago we never heard Kingfish and N word in the same sentence. Keep up the good work!

Last three comments made by same 'true believer'.

This guy is too smart just to stay on the internet.

I'll join his PAC any day.

So what is out there? Is there to be anger for a black male assessing his male race or that a black male is not supporting his male race? Some of his points are dead on right. I am white, but never owned slaves. Why should I pay a price for something I did not participate in, nor did my parents, or grandparents? My husband's family who came through Ellis Island in the early 1900's did not expect anything, but have achieved much and are rightfully proud of their accomplishments. THere has been so much more money/benefits available to public school children from the early 1970's than private schooled children. This man's argument is not off base. Politically, maybe incorrect, but accurate and realistic. I learned, as a female child raised in the dee south, early on that one was responsible for his/her choices and the consequences of those choices. Victimization was not an option.

Amen to 5:47!

I didn't own slaves either. But, I did go to an excellent public school with teachers from accredited institutions because most of the tax dollars went to my school.

My parents were literate and my father had a good job so I went to private pre-school and kindergarten.

My church was wealthy so I enjoyed educational and recreational activities there and didn't have to pick cotton or shine shoes to help the family.

My family had a car and I could go to the library and the one for WHITES in my community was very good.

There was not a cultural acceptance of children out of wedlock because my female ancestors had never been seen as breeding stock.

I agree there is far less " excuse" these days for a minority to claim vicitimization.

I agree that there are those in the black community who make a living on making excuses just as there are those in the white community , such as Richard Barrett was, that make a living stirring up hatred and fear.

I respect that this gentleman is challenging the black community.

I wish we had someone challenging our bigoted rednecks in the same way!

Could someone point me to this gentleman's original post on this site. It was several months ago, and I can't find it. Thanks,
