Shirley Sherrod

That's what's most concerning to me is people laughing just at the idea of death of someone who they disagree with politically.

Like when Shirley Sherrod talked before the NAACP and she issued a story.

This is something Andrew Breitbart covered.

And she said, I did not help the white farmer as well as I could the black farmer.

And the NAACP audience cheers.

Andrew Breitbart said now eventually Shirley Sherrod goes on to say her humanity got the better, the best of her.

And she realized it wasn't black versus white.

He said, but that doesn't change the reaction.

We keep diabolical contractors alone make you want to stop.

But we keep going because of that same principle that you're talking about with Ms. Shirley Sherrod.

It's that same thing about fighting for seeing a greater potential when you can give something to the people.

I like the way you talk.

The Masons, which is the oldest fraternal organization from the Black community, dating all the way back to prior to the Revolutionary War, started by Prince Hall.

The NAACP, of course, Black Voters Matter, and groups like Shirley Sherrod's group down in southwest Georgia.

All of these organizations represent the leadership in local communities across the entire 159 counties in Georgia.

Those people represent leaders who are trusted messengers.

Absolutely.

Well, we've already talked about the different organizations, but within those organizations, there are generations that are at work.

And you mentioned Shirley Sherrod as one of those examples who's been involved in making a difference in the Black community in Southwest Georgia and putting her integrity and responsibility on the line for decades.

And the critical thing there is, and what differentiates us from any other organization, is that we understood that it was important that if we were going to get people to lift up their voices in power, we had to have trusted messengers from local communities.
