Look at their faces. What do you see?
I wanted to look them in the eye and say, on the record, that they are attempting to reconstruct this government to undo Black progress. Their targeting of @calvin4clerk is rooted in that reality, and it needed to be called out plainly.
I showed up speaking for myself. No organization in Louisiana sent me. No party asked me to come. I say that to make clear much of this work is being done independently, without formal partnerships, and without the budgets, staff, or institutional backing many established organizations have.
I came because what they are doing is wrong. The court reconstruction happening in New Orleans has been done in different ways already in Baton Rouge and across this state—especially in the largest, Blackest cities—to dilute Black political power.
I started Civics for the People because I know many of us don’t know what is happening inside government or how these systems are used. It’s my way of teaching the game and helping our people move with knowledge.
Their elections are in 2027. We can send them home to frown and chew grass much gum as they please.
If you believe this work matters, support Civics for the People at the link in my bio so I can teach the people and send some on these people home.

Governor Landry loves talking tough on Fox News — but back here in Louisiana we’re still 50th in the nation in all the things that matter. Instead of fixing our schools with real teacher pay raises or building real economic opportunity, he’s begging ICE to come patrol New Orleans and bragging about sending people to Angola.
And now he’s running ads telling New Yorkers to “rethink Louisiana.” @govjefflandry, I’ve never needed to trash another city just to make mine look good.
New Yorkers, don’t be fooled. A governor who calls in federal agents to his own community because he can’t solve crime is just pissing on your leg and telling you it’s raining. The only thing raining here is the terror Jeff and Liz keep bringing down on this state.
Louisiana doesn’t need ICE agents, we need jobs and resources to address our issues. That’s how the federal government can help Louisiana.
Y’all tell Jeff what you think about his comments on Fox News, he’s polling at 39% and leaning into the crazy.

🚨HOLY COW: Sen. Rick Scott is now working to SUSPEND all paychecks for members of Congress during a Govt. shutdown.
"We shouldn't get paid if we don't do our job."
Do you agree with Sen. Scott?
Travis Hunter just wants to play ball. The young man doesn’t drink, party, or do any dumb sh*t. You still got folks finding reasons to be mad about things like baptism. Those same people loved Tim Tebow and admonished anyone criticizing him as someone who abhorred his outward love for Christ.
Dude, you think players sit around meditating all dang morning before games? Hunter does it the right way, & I hope he keeps being him. Anyone who had an issue with that is a fool!
