The Breakdown with Shaun King

Today is another GOOD NEWS episode of The Breakdown. In just 24 hours, not only did we raise nearly $3 million for young Ralph Yarl and his family, but we helped ensure that the bigot who shot Ralph was arrested and charged for his crimes.Hundreds of thousands of you made phone calls and sent emails that helped make that happen.

THANK YOU.

This is what we can do when we move in the same direction, with the same goal.

Let me unpack and explain it.

Today I just wanted to take a moment to be super transparent and share what therapy has done for me. I've been doing weekly sessions for 2 years now. It's not magic. It doesn't solve all of your problems. But it has helped me be a healthier person IN SO MANY WAYS.

If you are on the fence about therapy, I'd love for you to hear me out. And for those of you that are on a therapy journey, I hope something I share today helps you keep going.

Love y'all.

HINT - it's not just because of Russian propaganda.

Russia has a VERY long history of truly supporting the continent of Africa when almost the entire white world was either standing down or literally doing the oppressing during colonization and Apartheid.

That's at the root here, but even beyond that, nations like Russia and China continue to provide billions of dollars not of "aid," but investment into massive development projects that again, most of the white world has ignored.And so, when Putin does something that I think is truly horrible in the invasion of Ukraine, and commits countless war crimes in the process, most African leaders are almost completely unwilling to call him out.

On Monday, 27 year old Justin Jones, after being chosen by the Nashville City Council to basically replace himself in the Tennessee State Legislature, was sworn in, and triumphantly returned to the floor of the Capitol.

Today, it's time for Memphis to choose 27 year old Justin Pearson to return and be sworn in. And barring any hiccups, that's exactly what we expect to happen.

Yesterday, just days after they ousted and removed Tennessee State Representative Justin Jones from office, the City of Nashville voted to return him RIGHT BACK.

And it was a GLORIOUS sight to behold. After being sworn in before a crowd of THOUSANDS of people, Justin Jones, Black power fist raised in the air, marched right back onto the floor of the legislature, into the belly of the beast, in front of dozens and dozens of evil white men who voted to remove him.

And they HATED IT.These men just made Justin Jones into a national hero.

I know the conservative white supremacists in the Tennessee State Legislature thought they were teaching these two young Black men a lesson, but the truth is that the bravery of these two young brothers taught the entire world a lesson.

When used in the right place, at the right time, non-violent civil disobedience functions as both a mirror and spotlight on the bigotry of this country - showing the nation just how racist it truly is.
