A nasty family fight has broken out between Jackson Ward 3 Councilman Kenneth I. Stokes and his nephew, Daniel Cooper . Stokes accuses his nephew of pushing dat dope at his food truck while Cooper says he is just pushing quesadillas. However, Cooper is fighting back. Molly Minta and Anna Wolfe reported in Mississippi Today:
The blue trailer housing Georgetown Grub is one of few places in the area to grab a bite. It serves wings, quesadillas, cheesesteaks and fried broccoli across from an abandoned Jasco gas station. Stokes alleges it serves dope. “The dope boys have found a way to get the planning department to help give permission and permits for them to have food trucks,” he said from behind the council dais. “They’re not selling food, but they’re selling dope.”.... An HVAC technician who manages several rental homes in the neighborhood, Cooper said he opened the mobile restaurant – which, indeed, sells food – last year after cleaning up an abandoned lot owned by his late grandfather.... “He thinks he can’t be touched. He thinks that everybody sells dope,” Cooper said of Stokes. “But he met his match with me because I’m not scared to fight back, because I know I’m not doing nothing illegal.” Rest of article.
The article interviews residents who say Stokes has run off "black businesses." Read the rest of the article as there is more, much more to this story.

Kennef be losing it.
That fat lazy greaseball has never sorkwd a day in his life or run a business. He thinks if someone is successfull with a food truck then it must be dope. Guess what Kenny, there is food money to be made in wings and Mexican food. Or maybe this whole thing is because his relative wouldn’t give Kenny Fatass free grub?
The only reason Kenneth looked competent is because he had a malicious foil.
I don’t think Kenny is nearly as crazy as you people
Believe him to be. He’s not stupid and he says the truth! I will continue to vote for him
well it was a fun couple of years of Kenny looking like a smart guy in the room.
Chef Cooper say he offer 'fried broccoli'. That sounds of interest. I'm not much into broccoli but do love me anything fried. I would like to see a recipe. Maybe Zero Bear can help.
Yeah, but, Fact, it’s a lot of dope Americans are buying and selling from Bangor to Bakersfield, from Boca Raton to Bellingham, from Gulfport to Green Bay and all points in between. It’s the New American Dream. It’s the New American Way. And if you disapprove, then you are the pooper of the party.
Fried Broccoli is a twist on Fried Cauliflower which is a vegetarian Indian recipe. If the batter is seasoned right it is ridiculously good. A American adaptation is to season the batter like you would for fried chicken. But I prefer the masala/curry flavor of the Indian version.
I've seen enough cop movies to know that Kenny is trying to buy up all the property for cheap and then when all the black businesses and residents are gone he's gonna sell to corporate chains, national firms, etc.
That’s rich. If you think there’s any corporate interests looking to sink money into Jackson then I have some property to sell YOU.
If being dope is wrong, I don’t want to be right.
