Man some of you have no sympathy. Grambling's water was out for 3 days once.....All the hotels were booked. It's not a good feeling heating up water on the stove to take a hoe bath.

Man, Jackson is not that bad. You sound like those Repubs. Where do you live?I'm well aware of that but the bottom line is strategize to leave. If the white folks want Jackson back let them have it! Jackson ain't really serving the black community anyway ... it's a huge struggle to live there for the average black person. There's only 1 Walmart in the whole city, most neighborhoods don't have grocery stores, the crime is outrageous, the police dept is overwhelmed, water ain't never working, low economic growth in the city, very few opportunities in the city, black home ownership is lagging. And they don't have to leave right away, but within 1-2 years is doable.
Based on the former Jackson residents I talked to and the research I've done it is. We clearly have two different standards for quality living. Also I used to visit Jackson often back in the day, it was bad then and from my understanding it's worse now ... last time I was in Jackson was 2018 for one night and it wasn't a good experience. My hotel near downtown was filthy, the IHOP I went to next door had dirty dishes/utensils and just had a bad vibe ...but I will say the people in Jackson I encountered usually were very friendly which is my favorite thing about the city.Man, Jackson is not that bad. You sound like those Repubs. Where do you live?
But this situation it's literally the fault of the Republicans who neglected to run the state equitability.If we want to eliminate this problem from happening again. We need to teach our young black children that it's more to life than sports, rapping, selling drugs, and tweaking.
It's embarrassing, because we blame the Republicans for everything. But, what are we doing to take our destiny into our own hands????

So every white person in Jackson is a Republican???Okay, if all those evil Republicans passed away on tomorrow. Would the African American in Jackson be able to keep the water plant afloat?
Because, (from what I heard) The state had bring in water workers from other states to get the system back online. All jokes asides, we complain about white people, but we need them for our livelihood.

This trolling shtick is a bad look for you, bro.Okay, if all those evil Republicans passed away on tomorrow. Would the African American in Jackson be able to keep the water plant afloat?

When you are the house slave, its how you think.So every white person in Jackson is a Republican???
And nice way to insult your own race claiming none of them are intelligent enough to run the water plant.
If you had to get folks from other states-that is more of an indictment of your school system including the colleges.
FYI folks are trying to do that. Hard to do when your black media props those things up.

It would have been best if you'd led with this.Yeah, The Republicans only did what they were suppose to do. But, what are we going to do about it?
Where the money at?
That's because the STATE doesn't have the people either. What is it with you? No matter how many times we tell you the republicans control where the state and federal money goes, you still go back to your anti-black troupes? You want to trust the state even after they stole all that welfare money? Did you know that the IHL ok'd JSU having it's own water supply system and your beloved state repubs let the bill die?
JSU seeking federal funding to study water system, but state says it’s ‘not a guarantee’
Jackson State University wants to use federal pandemic relief funds to study overhauling the campus water and sewer system, an investment that officials say is necessary to maintain health and safety as the city’s water emergency has upended the start of the fall semester.www.sctonline.net
A bill proposed last session by Rep. Angela Cockerham, an independent from Magnolia, sought $8 million for JSU for costs associated with building a separate water system. It died in committee.
Now how do you define evil?
It was interesting and informative to also hear Representative Bennie Thompson's take and points on the water situation a little over a week ago with MSNBC correspondent Alex Wagner. Rep. Thompson comes in around the 02:12 mark:
Jackson, MS water catastrophe lays bare state's failures of governance
Rep. Bennie Thompson, whose district includes parts of Jackson, Mississippi, talks with Alex Wagner about the historic racism and political dysfunction that has made the city of Jackson vulnerable to misfortune like the flooding that has knocked out the city's water system leaving residents...www.msnbc.com
