Reposted from @real_sharpton “Sitting in the “Morning Joe” studio Monday, Rev. Al Sharpton railed against Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker as not only incompetent and ill-equipped for the job, but as an “insult” to the Black community that helped him gain such a platform in the first place.

Speaking with journalist and “Uphill” author Jemele Hill, Sharpton sniped at Walker, saying his presence on the ballot is “an insult to all of us that fought and continue to fight to open doors for Blacks. We should be celebrating two Black men running against each other with political ideas, rather than being ashamed every time he opens his mouth.” Georgia is two weeks out from its highly contested midterm elections, which will see Republican candidate Walker standing off against Democratic candidate Rev. Raphael Warnock. Sharpton posited Monday that former President Donald Trump, who first helped bolster Walker’s visibility as a senatorial candidate, likely first chose Walker to run against Warnock because they’re both Black politicians.

“I don’t think they vetted him or cared: ‘Put a Black guy, there’s a Black guy, here’s my guy.’ And as he began to become exposed … it doesn’t matter: ‘We’re throwing a Black guy in the ring with a Black guy.’ That’s how Trump thinks. The insults started with Trump,” Sharpton said.

“What is scary is that people are buying into it,” he continued. “Clarence Thomas, I disagree with just about everything he’s ever uttered, but Clarence Thomas does have a background and an understanding of law. I don’t think Herschel knows the difference between the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, and the fact that they would throw him in there is an insult to all of us that fought and continue to fight to open doors for Blacks. We should be celebrating two Black men running against each other with political ideas, rather than being ashamed every time he opens his mouth. We say, ‘Oh my god, what is he going to say now?’”Hill echoed Sharpton in that she might disagree with “anything” the late Herman Cain had to say politically, “but I felt like he was competent,” she said…”- https://www.thewrap.com/herschel-walker-al-sharpton-morning-joe-

Reposted from @keithabeauchamp Today marks the 101st Birthday Anniversary of my friend and mentor Mrs. Mamie Till Mobley.

Every year on this day, I sit back and reflect on my journey to get here. I can still hear your voice and your words of wisdom that have guided me to where we are today. Although I’m truly overwhelmed by all the accolades and achievements, you know I can not sleep until all who participated in the kidnapping and lynching of Emmett Till are held accountable for their actions.

Mother Mobley, you are deeply missed and our mission for justice is never forgotten. ✊🏾

Till is still in theaters. Also now playing on all Digital and Video On Demand Platforms!!!
