in mississippi for five, five of the best of my most complicated years and my life, after george floyd's murder. i have been thinking a lot about emmett till. in the wake of the past few days, remembering i have the opportunity to nights ago to leave darnell of frazier's words on the anniversary of the death. marc o'donnell called me and said the cannot be my voice that does this. in the past few days, after george floyd's murder in the wake, in the thinking about the book and, reading darnell as words and coming to tulsa, this is the first time i have left middle tennessee and over a year and i came here. thinking about emmett till, the past few days, this is all become more complicated. mississippi is maybe the only place on earth but i never felt gaslit when i talk about the trouble of the idea of america. the divide between the reality of it and the dream of it, no erasure there, in mississippi it is as plain as the train tracks, that still divide one half of many delta towns from another, the student bodies of any white flight academy from their defunded public counterparts. mississ

but by george floyd summer everybody had an ar 15. everybody was rocking body armor. everybody was going up spending $1000 on a combat outlet and wearing size 52 pants. that was just very common by that point. but what was happening was that that name that zerlina maxwell said a moment ago, titus was forming and that stands for trump insurgency in the united states. so where it wasn't about being blue boy or wearing a hawaiian shirt and preaching in celebration, that they give me read it wasn't about an old keeper or believing the entire government is out to get you.that's a given, it wasn't about standard operating procedure and white supremacy, that's a given. it's about your loyalty to donald trump. and if you were loyal to donald trump you already subscribed to all of those things, you hated black lives matter and antigo was an enemy like al qaeda and isis and in your head you may need to have a gun battle with them. another thing these people are talking about quite a bit was they were talking about there was always the survivalist world guys . but suthey were ta
