7:36 am
it's the feel so real. i still found myself waking up throughout the night around the time that they count inside of prison. a lot of times when i wake up, i just laid there is the takes a minute for the city. and i'm a man of my word. i said, i'm going to be those god hope i'm a fight for it. ok. and that's what i'm doing because even though i'm i yeah, i'm still one of them. i'm packing overnight back to drive down to bed room to speak to, to lawmakers from 1996. i was found guilty and
7:37 am
try to verena came back 10 voted to convict to 40 to exonerate. and as when made my case with they called jim crow conviction, they're called jim crow jury laws. they allow injury that is not unanimous to convict someone of the crime the effect of me. and you still have individuals in prison right now. disappeared affected by the jim crow long the day you want me to tell them that they need to hear that a lot of gas and down there and down just on my way is be from
7:38 am
the fat face the the good. now for the 25 years or 2, it shows right the way to a more but i feel comfortable more around people out here. they've been in prison. i just reached out to show you what they've been home 2 or 3 months before me. the already doing the branding the 25 years i'd be watching. give you people understand that we've been through, you know, the yeah. the
7:39 am
behind a lot of people are allowed to do. so i'm going to move to these 2 to us. the every prison in the state of louisiana all built honestly, plantations, and they drive you like slaves. they got they hosses, they got a full well they got, they got they watching over you telling you to get back to work. you had to go was come kicking on your bed if you ran out of bed by 530 with them just, you know, driving you and pushing you to work for free. the whole system of angola is late. yes, uh no sir. did you? i have the last name it is. you're saying it doesn't go when i went down go to
7:40 am
1991. i was 17 years old. it was a. it was a really different, a place to to survive. the i'm it tears 1998 in a blog inside and go. the been in prison teaches you to cut off for the most is a direct result of slavery. a slave was taught not to love nobody because the person who loved with the person there to get so. but when you do that, you're taking away pieces and you manage it. so coming home is hard to kind of like transition because our society is not normal. people don't shut the most of all to have been
7:41 am
psychologically reprogram. and that's like how did you last a lifetime sometimes we don't ever recover from those traumatic experiences of just send us. the biggest challenge for miranda right now is talking with the next person, you know, especially on a job. last week i ended up getting a job with someone telling you what the look it puts you in a mindframe. so like you, you talking just like the dog man he talking to me like i'm still in prison the 6th and told me to just show up the morning at 6 am. so that's what i did. i was here like 530 because i feel like if i give you guys 6, i'm like how many more?
7:42 am
dizzily i do know what of this flanders i had an opportunity to do the job because now i have my mom and my everytime. she overcame cancer, she be colby, she be on to tex. she'd be every time whatever she went to the 1st thing to to say to she going on where to see me come on down with that in the be that have to. ready me, all right. okay. do you have any kids? have you put a mania, almo? either 30 minutes? i need to live most. yeah, that's the
7:43 am
only thing that i would do for, you know, losing my mom while i was incarcerated. brandon lived in fear every day of having to sell for like id love. my mom and my and my father was what i was in prison. so in prison, bradley became a work out do turn and everything. oh, just a few was able to wipe away the emotions desperate part of a hard curse. because you've got to do because you don't do it. you're going a sofa in a way that you don't want to suffer in prison. now he's back in society. he has his own. brandon seals himself behind his bolt. and i think that he's trying to find his niche. when does he really belong?
7:44 am
he's going to keep going until he's bad, where he's being the i don't want it be and i want to be in boys. right? yeah, i'm ready. right. it doesn't work that way. i don't feel like i'm except the parent though we always watch. i'm on parole for 1718 while you is the simplest thing dick in friday or send me back to prison in the row system. if you do the
7:45 am
wrong thing, you could always test away from our. i mean, you 30 man we are right there about to pay that for road days in the state of 1st. so right now my parole fee is $63.00 a month and i have to pay them at least a $187.00 times. so the total would be $11781.00. i'm free but i'm not free because i'm still bringing it basically down to the department of corrections disputed solid and shane. you know, my, the, he's that one is a need to stay a gun to report to a man with a gun and
7:46 am
a bass. his man came to my doses of practice. mon, i'm looking for him. he is not locked up. but he's still got a math because that probation officer can re bulky, i'm assuming i'm back. he's free. and he's now free. the you don't bring your child into to where to become a prisoner no matter how long he was going to be in prison. i was going to be is rather than dash because she didn't have anyone else. now been ashamed of him, gone to prison. i mean he was worthy to see him walk out of dreamy and he was out there she was. there was just barely writing. it's something that you can explain because had wages,
7:47 am
so i would have worked on the of 25 years in prison. brandon jackson served that time for armed robbery, even though some members of the jury found him not guilty. there are about 1500 other prisoners in the state torch affected by split jury's and are still in prison . despite the supreme court ruling those products unconstitutional. the
7:48 am
way louisiana lawmakers created the gym. closure was in 1898. they wrote. our mission was to establish the supremacy of the right. right. that's what they wrote and it did what it was designed to do. we still have the highest incarceration rate in the world. the laws need to be changed. the are coming
7:49 am
on, but i stand for 1000 the times, especially about 30 minutes to an hour for hawkins. the hello. how are you? well, thank you for giving us the hi. brandon has a non in history verdict, recently been pro and wanted an opportunity to talk on behalf of himself and the others to remain in louisiana. i received a life sentence for crime that i didn't commit 10 wide. you're responding to your
7:50 am
to, to black. did i did 25 and have me as i watch all my family members that we can't confuse law. we just, we can't do that because we all are in agreement that this is, it raises lot the supreme court ruled or they went on constitution, but they will perspective, instead of who really rich were active, whatever's unconstitutional. should that be all caught the toughness both fall and that's why i'm sitting there today. i'm alone right now, but stand out because i was crying the same way if they still law. i know sometimes it takes
7:51 am
you know, mean faces to come here, given the opposition that with a look we those like single flight like hill. i hope it doesn't take them. you're getting dark down in your back. even look up, we don't get up and we'll continue to fight. whatever you need me to do is just call comment. i'm, i'm now appreciate you or i will stop big loss routes gonna help a lot of the okay. are you doing? my brother was convicted of it. jim crow, jerry. i feel like i was the reason i'm gonna do what i can do. i'm gonna do is i'm a fight for it. ok. it keeps me crowd. it keeps me hopeful.

7:53 am
to move down the courts and let them know that the welding data is on tomorrow will be in the phase of freedom. freedom and part of the way all we had to do is hold on we the what do you hope happens tomorrow? i'm hoping that just news or if that's an unconstitutional loan, why can't you over 200 megabyte directory the grid, the, you all you go rogers, the
7:54 am
may, i please the court in this state. we believe that people are innocent until proven guilty. but hundreds of predominantly black louisiana and remain in prison despite never having a constitutional verdict. and they do so based on louisiana's last jim crow law. and we can fix that here. we're waiting on the
7:55 am
today, louisiana supreme court heard they'd be radical, nearly a 100 years after the 1890 a constitutional convention matched for the purpose of insuring the supremacy of the white race in louisiana. and hopefully today were able to write that wrong. i feel like this is a case opportunity to to really kill louisiana, the
7:56 am
