NBA YoungBoy performed live at Terminal 6 in Austin, Texas on the night of August 16-17, 2018. It was his last show with his friend AJ that was brutally shot and killed by police that night 🕊️
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.

Just imagine if the top ranked basketball prospects teamed up together and all go to an hbcu similar to what Chris Webber and the fab 5 did with Michigan.
Imagine if this was done with an HBCU and an HBCU team wins the national championship
These kids would make history
It would be more than a regular championship
They would change the history of college basketball and HBCUs forever.
Their names would be forever set in stone not only in sports history but also in Black history
Did you know about 20 minutes after Charlie Kirk was shot dead there was another school shooting in Colorado. The president care more about Charlie Kirk being killer than children being gone down in schools once again.
