In all my years of broadcasting, I was always determined to not be a race baiter, someone who had nothing else to talk about other than racism and racial matters. ——- I was mentored as a young man by former Missouri Congressman Bill Clay sr., who never retreated not one inch, from his duty and obligation to uplift his black community, it was his strength! ——- He was indeed an inspirational leader and source of great pride, for African Americans in both StLouis city and StLouis county. ——- That was then and this is now, there is no longer inspirational leadership for the African American community of any kind, especially in the city, with the exception perhaps of StLouis Circuit Attorney, Kim Gardner. ——- Organizations that once led the way come election time such as the NAACP, Clergy Coalition and other black institutions that made black voter participation a priority, have virtually ceased to exist in StLouis city. ——— As was illustrated in the pitiful turnout of black voters in the recent held General Election, in StLouis city. ——— The attack on black elected officials by the so called, “ Progressives” is relentless and is aided by black opportunistic, self serving would be leaders, in StLouis city and StLouis county. ——— Virtually every African American office holder with an independent voice and unwillingness to be dictated to by white,”Progressives” has been targeted.  A trend that we fully expect to continue, in StLouis city, for sure! That list includes StLouis County Councilwoman Rita Days, StLouis Alderwoman Sharon Tyus, Alderwoman Tina Pihls and now StLouis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner. ——- We covered a lot a territory during last evening’s taping of the Kdhx Podcast Tangazo, where I was joined in studio by my cohost Tim Person, social justice activist Attorney, Jerryl Christmas and Attorney Jerry Hunter, Chairman of the StLouis Board of Elections Commission. ——— Robert Green, a north side neighborhood activist, discussed his efforts to organize the city’s 14th ward, while expressing his dismay with the choices that were available, for aldermen of his ward. ——

Solidarity was our theme for last evening’s recording of the KDHX podcast, Tangazo. ——— I was joined in studio by some of St. Louis’s, “finest,” four African American lawyers including Celeste Dotson, Chairman of the iconic Mound City Bar Association. ——— Esteemed veteran defense Attorney Charles Kirksey, Attorney Celeste Dotson, Attorney Ruby Bonner, who spent four years in the St. Louis Prosecutors office and social justice activist, Attorney Jerryl Christmas, were my guest for a riveting discussion, on the latest attempt to remove St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner, from office. ——- Attorney Christmas, who’s UTube video garnered close to five thousand views, destroying the pretext, that Missouri State Republicans, are using in their latest attempt to remove St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner, from office. ——— We discussed our dismay with,”careerist,” black elected officials, who rushed to support Republican efforts , to usurp the rights of St. Louis voters, to elect candidates of their own choosing. ——— Our was a, no holds barred conversation about our need to support our embattled St. Louis Circuit Attorney, as demonstrated by the prestigious Mound City Bar Association, who’s membership has included the likes of the late Frankie Freeman and Margaret Bush Wilson, Forriss Elliott Sr. the late Ira Young, Federal Judges Clyde Cahill and our dear friend Federal Judge, Charles Shaw. ——— It occurred to me that Kim Gardner, might consider running for mayor of St. Louis, as she has overwhelming support from the black community and progressive minded people, as demonstrated by winning her reelection with over 70% of the votes in the 2021 race for StLouis Circuit Attorney. Kim Gardner, embodies the qualities of strength of character and has the courage, to stand up for the rights of poor people to be treated fairly, by a criminal justice system that continues to persecute black people, for being poor. ———
