If you live in Louisiana and you’ve got a disconnect notice on your Entergy bill—pull up. This Thursday and Friday, the State of the People Power Tour is in New Orleans, and we’re doing more than just talking—we’re putting $10,000 on light bills for folks in need, on site in

New Orleans was a success! We held powerful workshops, shared real resources, and helped dozens of families keep their lights on with utility support. This is what building power and meeting people’s needs looks like. Thank you to our host @paseverett and Rock of Ages B.C. we

New Orleans, y’all have a mayor’s race this year. Don’t just pick a side—set the agenda. What’s your plan for your neighborhood? What policies do you want? What dollars are coming to your community? From City Hall to the State Capitol, it’s time to demand contracts,

In the second Blackest state in America—with 900,000 registered Black voters—we have the numbers to run the table: governor, secretary of state, attorney general. That’s not just about power—it’s about priorities. Louisiana’s $35 billion budget reflects our values, and right now,

In America, your bloodline could get you banned from a train seat — or a seat of power. And for some, passing for white was the easier way forward. In this clip, I break down the history they don’t teach: how terms like mulatto (50% Black), quadroon (25% Black), and octoroon

Louisiana is back in the headlines—but the real question is, what are we gonna do about it? Ten people escaped from Orleans Parish jail. That’s not just a news story—that’s a breakdown we all saw coming. It’s not about excuses or finger-pointing. It’s poor political strategy for

Nottoway didn’t just burn — it symbolically showed what eventually happens to white supremacy: it collapsed. Some folks are mourning a building. We’re mourning the people whose names were never etched in its walls — the 170+ Black builders, enslaved and erased, who crafted that

We have segregationists in Baton Rouge, and we keep letting them ruin what we’ve built as a community. The wealthiest, whitest part of Baton Rouge broke off to form the city of St. George. Now they’re trying to create their own school district—but still want access to Baton

I reached out to @mayorsidedwards regarding a disturbing encounter between BRPD and a young woman and her brother. I don’t always bring these matters to social media—because sometimes leaders act swiftly and responsibly. But when they don’t, the public deserves to know. This is

Support Black Farmers. @SweetJonesFarms is a Louisiana-based, Black-owned farm serving the Baton Rouge metro. Today they dropped off fresh greens, okra, and watermelon. We can’t keep depending on big box stores for everything. Black people were the original watermelon farmers in

I might’ve said it with more flavor back then—but did I lie? Was North Baton Rouge okay? We’ve watched investment after investment go in, but the people still hurting. Folks were having glossy, feel-good conversations while the transformation happening wasn’t for the good. And

You can’t say you’re helping us while cutting the programs that give young people a way out. Trump’s team wants applause for pardoning NBA YoungBoy—but at the same time, they’re phasing out Job Corps and slashing Medicaid. When nearly half of Job Corps participants are Black,

You can change parties to win an election—Black folks can’t change skin to get fair representation. This is my state rep, Edmond Jordan(Edmond Jordan), Chair of the Louisiana Black Caucus, giving it to ‘em straight: anecdotal wins don’t equal equity. One-off elections don’t undo

Mayor Sid says: Pass my tax or we go bankrupt. But instead of telling the truth or offering real solutions, he’s blaming Mayor @sharonwestonbroome and trying to scare the public. Here’s what I laid out: • Make corporations keep their word IBM and Exxon took tax breaks

Black folks don’t need lectures—we need other races and backgrounds to hold their own accountable. Over 80% of Black voters rejected Trump. Meanwhile, 40–50% of some of your own communities helped elect him. And yet, the demand is always on us to sacrifice more. Do more. We

The history I’m sharing, if you don’t know it ask yourself why? It’s intentional that you don’t know it. The goal has always been to keep us unaware of all that we’ve done. So we wouldn’t have the audacity to do it again. If Black people fresh off the plantation could take half

You say you couldn’t have lived through Jim Crow or slavery—well, you’re alive right now. I’ve been doing this work for over a decade. And in that time, the injustice hasn’t decreased—it’s evolved. @eugene_collins12 and I have seen children go missing, bodies mishandled,

Sgt. Caleb Eisworth was hit and dragged 500 feet. I’m praying for his full recovery—no officer deserves that. If we want our officers to be safe, we need to address the conduct of officers in our communities in a real way. We don’t like to have honest conversations about how we

Asia Raby is facing attempted murder of a cop charges for calling the police. She did what people are told to do: report the crime. She told them her loved one—having a mental health crisis—ran over a Baton Rouge officer. Now she’s in jail for it. Let that sink in: She called
